I prefer my mini disc player. It's funny cuz mini disc got so popular in europe and asia, yet never really picked up here.

you can copy mp3's, cd's, and just about anything to a mini disc player, and they're about the same size as an mp3 player.

You can fit about 73 minutes on each disc too :cool:

I have a portable one. and only have 2 'bought' mini-discs for it and 5 re-writeable ones.

i don't believe it to be as versatile.

the only thing that might be "better" (if you call it better) is that you can get a mp3 player with 128 mbRAM that stores it all inside itself without the inconvenience of carrying little disks

I happen to like the discs. they're colorful cool looking, and i've done some fat mixes, recording from radio, computer and cd's

Ehh, kinda reminds me of PC's vs. Mac's. Im a die hard pc guy, and im a die hard mini disc smurf :hat:

....i got it down to $99 for the player (comes with earbuds that you'll want to replace, handstrap, belt strap, usb cable/adapter, and software)...and $65 or so for the memory card...i love it...shit hooks up via usb and the software is simple...click and drag away...at some point, they'll have a higher memory card because rio says its upgradable to 640mb...that's just nuts...

not really. it's a ubs port (is that right spelling?). it may not be AS quick as the mp3 player, but i think the mini disc is still more versatile overall :cool:

Then again, the toy phatman has sounds dope. Im gonna have to cross the line and check this out ;)
