All I really need is to be able to rip my CDs to my PC for when I'm working. I bought a Mini Disc player a few years ago - when I really wish I hadn't. If I had have waited about a year - I could have gotten one of the many MP3 players - which would be much easier than "recording" to Mini Disc. Oh well. # Posted - 08/01/2005 18:46:00
the man with no name	i bought a sony minidisc player last year. it was pretty good but the headphone jack kept breaking on me and i had to send it back to be repaired several times. having to convert tracks to atrac was a hassle too. an ipod, i'm biased i know, really is effortless to use. # Posted - 09/01/2005 02:53:00

I broke the remote control thing for mine about a month after I bought it. Boy was I pissed off! They cost about $200 to replace as well - so I might have to have an "accident" with it sometime soon. # Posted - 09/01/2005 14:56:00
