Hmmm.....
True.... But....
I don't agree on 'MD is not about audio quality'. For me it's more about
'How do we pack CD audio quality onto a 2.5" disc without sacrifying to
much of the quality?'
Modern MD players are smaller than portable cassette-players, they are
a lot smaller then CD-players and some are even smaller than the MP3 players.
Their sound-quality is better than most portable cassette-players and
a lot better compared to MP3 players.
I can easyly detect the difference between a tape, MP3 and CD. I can't
between MD and CD.
Conclussion:
MD is also about audio quality!
Cheers,
Ralph -> somebody had to defend MD!
