You're right, it's not CD quality. But.... 99% of all persons I know, can't
hear the difference between MD and CD. But the same 99% will hear the
difference with tape and MP3....
For me that's near CD quality audio on a very portable media. We could
almost say that the audio quality isn't sacrified at all.

is MD... than there is tape.... a long time nothing.... and finaly MP3...
