Don't know if anyone's mentioned this but... "Argos" (catalogue shop) in the UK have packs of five Maxell 80 min MD for 9.99 (UKpounds) Not the best price i'm sure, but fairly good for a "high street" retailer. On another note. Digital I/O It might be of interest to some. A company called "RME" (www.rme-audio.de) do a nice range of "Pro" digital audio I/O cards. (Cheapest is 200UKPounds) 16/20/24 bit res. 32 to 96KHZ sample rates. Consumer & pro format with both optical & coax in and out. Also come with a nice piece of software called "Digicheck" which will give you various info regarding the digital audio information. The Drivers/card/software seem pritty bullet proof..... (on win98). Not a cheap digital solution by any means, but a very good serious digital audio I/O.
