MD: Interesting article...
From: "Gabriele Intemann" [EMAIL PROTECTED] You might want to have a look at: http://www.dv.com/magazine/2000/1200/rose1200.html ...thanks for the link Gabriele. I wonder if anyone noticed the following quote toward the end of the article. "MiniDisc is used a lot in Hollywood for playback as well. Because its speed is stable, performers can dance or lipsync to it for music videos. Its fast cueing and easy-to-edit track markers make it very flexible in the field...etc...etc." This quote (along with others sprinkled throughout the article) only confirm what I suggested in a previous post...that Mini Disc will be around for the foreseeable future because of it's widespread use in the field of professional pre/post production audio recording. True, you may not be able to find a large selection at the local Circuit City in the near future. But MD is being used extensively by recording professionals (particularly in the film industry). And that fact alone will insure it's survival long after it fades as a mass market consumer medium, even as it did for DAT before it. So fear not Mini Disc lovers...the medium is safe...although you may soon have to shop with pro audio suppliers for equipment and blank media.

My latest "low end" ($700) DAT deck allows the SCMS to be switched off, since DAT is now apparently considered to be a professional format. When I got my previous DAT deck (around 1993), DAT decks under $1200 were considered "consumer" decks, with unswitchable SCMS. Tho I fear if MD became a pro format, we be paying pro prices. -*- -*- -*- -*- -*- -*- -*- -*- -*- -*- -*- -*- You have just read e-mail by Ken Clinger.
