The End of an Era: Exploring the Final Sony MiniDisc Walkman Models
Sony's Farewell to the MD format
You're viewing a single thread.
The format never made it big in Canada so I was oblivious.
But I still have many Walkman models, and I love them.
It probably would have dominated the market for a good while if Sony hadnt taken so long to ship mini disk storage drives for computers.
Sony also could have let them play mp3s. The last thing you wanted to do with a poorly encoded 128kbps mp3 was transcode it to another lossy format. But nobody was sharing atrac files.
Never heard of mini disk storage drives, but now I have to search if there is one that works on modern computers.
