David,
If you're willing to send me the disc I can try to read it with the
system I have from EDL (linked from my 'gear I use' page, else google for
"minidisc transfer editor").
The system scans MDs for audio data and can contruct TOCs along the lines
Walt suggests. I haven't had to recover data this way yet ~ but I'm
certainly willing to give it a try for you. There shouldn't be any risk
except the mailing back and forth, perhaps UPS Ground would be good.
If you're interested, my mailing address is on the 'contact' page of my
website...
Best regards,
aaron
