I think it has something to do with the re-write technology
It looks like there is a small magnetic head on top (Overwrite head)
that might be used to zap the current secotr into mush so it can be
overwritten. thanks

Just a thought.
Why didn't Sony make MD double sided? Could have followed the
analogue cassette analogy (!) and given twice the recording time for
almost the same cost?

Ready to look daft :o) )

Hmmm, come to think of it:
To flip a disc over to get 500 MB isn't so hot. SDMI, uuuuugh. IF
ONLY Sony/Sharp would make MD devices that could take the 650 MB
discs, and maybe give MD recorders data transfer capability? Now THAT
would be hot. Imagine: Throw like 2 hours of music onto it, a few
photos, maybe a small game, and some data files you need, all on one
convenient disc/recorder. Drool.
