I use the Sony Premiumgold MD80.
I like the 80 min stereo, 160 min mono
And I believe the advert. that states "shock absorbing mechanism"
The discs feel heavier and more solid then others I have used and
have not failed me ever.
I also favor Sony and admit to not trying hhb discs.

I have been wanting to try their pro minidisc even though it is not
an 80 min, but have not yet.
