I suspect they listen to Gaz and the rest of us are just a "blowin in the wind", so to speak. If they had any sense, or actually used their own decks and then switched to one of their recorders, they would have found out first hand what the problem is and would have changed it. I love my Sony deck and I love my Sony portable, but I sure hate the problems that END SEARCH has caused. I wrecked several irreplaceable recordings because of it, and there really is no way around it except to immediately copy your new MD and use the copy so you have a back up when you lose the first one. Except the SCMS causes problems with that idea and also I have lost recording 5 minutes after I made them, because I was so anxious to see how the recording came out and I listened to a song immediately after it was recorded, stopped it in a hurry to record the next song, and wrote over the last half of the first song ruining it. -- Jim Coon Not just another pretty mandolin picker. mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] If Gibson made cars, would they sound so sweet?

MD: end search again and again
We wouldn't be arguing about end search if Gaz would stop trying to defend something so stupid, useless, and ergonomically idiotic, not to mention destructive. I don't understand why he does this, unless he just likes calling people stupid and arguing with them. But more importantly: does anyone at Sony even KNOW how much people hate it, or are we all making a lot of noise in the wilderness? Does anyone here know anyone at Sony who could be contacted about this? Is there any way to find out if Sony realizes that this feature is so unpopular? IF not, they'll just keep adding it to every new unit from now on! - To stop getting this list send a message containing just the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: MD: end search again and again
Gaz is OK - he has his own point of view, it's just different from most other peoples, although there are others on the list who also favour an end search button (not me..:-) ) Sony do tune in to this list - I know this for a fact but I don't know just how much influence they have on the design areas. Best thing would be to sign Rick's petition and maybe Sony will act on it. Maybe the petition should include other features to be considered eg: adjustable manual record levels whilst recording? It doesn't worry me at all - I'm very happy with my Sharp 701 - it already has these features (and more) GB - Original Message - From: Jim Gray [EMAIL PROTECTED] We wouldn't be arguing about end search if Gaz would stop trying to defend something so stupid, useless, and ergonomically idiotic, not to mention destructive.
