I like HiMD media, but not the machine.
I hope someone comes out with a .wav recorder that takes digi-in for HiMD disks soon.

no doubt that you can record wav via digi-opti-in on the HiMD, the problem is extracting the wav digitally...

Methinks that Sony only allows analog input/output, ugh.

No doubt, some enterprising folk/company will subvert this paradigm with a truly practical solution and .wav  file  support for HiMD media, once it has been out for a few months/years.

By then, we'll all gripe that HiMD is a measly 1GB and poo-poo it for SuperAudioDisk, the new format. However, SAD will be undercut by the inclusion of 248bit encryption, BlueTooth,  and the need for a 'Net connection for the licensing certificate server to allow it to play.

Actually, you can record digitally via the optical in.  However, if you do this you will not be able to transfer the recording via USB.

You'll need a preamp to power the mics.

There is really no way to justify the purchase of one of these things with the JB3 going for nearly half the price of HiMD unit. Digital in and lossless transfers, and no cost for media.

I love MDs, totally, but I can't justify these HiMDs ... yet.

Actually, when Sony releases the PSP and the UMD discs, THAT will be some hot stuff. :) But knowing Sony, they'll screw that up too.

no cost for media.

But theoretically, couldn't you just reuse a few MD's over and over without any loss of quality? It's not like dat/dds where you lose quality reusing them, is it?
