Hi guys...Ive been putting a lot of thought into md's.....but i have a few questions maybe you guys can help with:
1: What is the average amount of music you can get on 1 md?
2: What format do Md's record in usually?
3:what are the most notorious pro's/cons of a md?
Thanks for all of your help!

Here are some answers, to the best of my ability:
1.) 80 Mins. The higher quality, the lower amount of space on a disc. 80 is the shortest, i.e. highest quality.
2.) ATRAC compression scheme. I am telling you here: There are no consumer MD's that will allow you to transfer from MD to PC via USB.
3.) ATRAC compression; setting levels on the fly is problematic for some, impossible for others;
If you get a MD, make sure you look at Sharps, and not Sony. But, for a little more $, and not too much, you can get a Nomad Jukebox 3, which records at a better rate, and doesn't take discs... you would prolly make up the difference in price in purchasing discs...
My $00000000.02...
Maybe someone else can offer more, contradict me, etc!
