That would make 4 formats in an average collevtion already, or maybe 5: Vinyl, cassette, CD, MP3, Minidisc- trust me- keep the formats to as few as possible, saves hassle. MP3 player is better choice- don't drop it.


Minidisc has been out for ages and hasn't taken off for that very reason. It's just like Sony Betamax - if you release in a new format it had better be DAMN good, not just an alternative. DVD is a good example of a new format that is clearly advantageous over VHS.

I've been checking CNET for some MP3s - damn confusing, man! [img]graemlins/awcrap.gif[/img]
