Maybe this isn't really news but I thought I'd post it here anyway: http://www.wired.com/gadgets/portablemusic/news/2007/08/atrac ~~or~~ http://tinyurl.com/2cz8gm I'm not sure what this means in terms of new consumer minidisc recorders, probably not good. With the lineup of low cost solid state recorders increasing, it may cease to be a viable product in a few years. Except in Japan. The issue that does exist however is the difficulty in archiving digital only media. With the minidiscs it was easy to have yourself a tangible backup. --greg weddig http://gregweddig.net |
