Nor does any other MD manufacturer of consumer gear. They are far too
tied up by the legal entanglements put in by the help of congress and
the recording industry. You are assumed to be pirating music if you record.

Ummm, hate to sound like a broken record, but my MD recorder is
portable, has optical, SPDIF Coax, and USB for digital audio output.
There are at least two MD portables that have digital outs, the HHb
Portadisc I use and the Marantz one.
And, yes it does cost more, but you get a whole bunch more than just
digital outs for your money. Particularly with the Portadisc.
