Larry responded to my post:

 Why don't you transfer your CD's to MD?  

I am in the process of making compilation discs. 
Right now I'm doing compilations of pop songs from
1964 - 1973 (by year).  These are great because the
CDs always contain songs that I don't particularly
like.  Have to get around to doing my Beatles and
Billy Joel compilations - although I can't think of a
Billy Joel song that I don't like.

I'll keep the CDs (or at least most of them) for
backup.  I am going to put a few CDs on MD and then
get rid of the CDs (those discs that I rarely listen
to) in order to save space, but I can't see
transfering all 1700+ CDs to MD.

I do have a CDR on my computer, but I've never been
able to get it to work, and I have given up on it.

 I prefer slot in, but I always have this fear that
 some day I'm going to have an Md eaten.

I had the same fear when I was trying to decide what
MD to buy.  Then along came the MT-15 with it low
price tag and I stopped worrying about the loading
mechanism.  
I do find that the MT-15 is a pain though.  Even when
I'm sitting in the house, I sometimes have difficulty
loading or removing the MD.  Unless one is very
careful, the MD's shutter tends to get caught on the
little metal guides.  Forget about doing that in the
car.  What I often do when commuting is play an MD
until the end; then I unplug the MD unit and play a CD
or listen to the radio for the rest of the trip.  That
way I don't have to crash the car while trying to mess
with loading the MD.

Hey James, I could be interested to have a copy of your Beatles MD
compilation...

Beatles are one of the best music group of all time ! I don't like all their
song (the psycadelic period was not my type...).

Maybe you could contact me if you're interested to make me a copy of the
beatles or any other '70 to '90 music too !

Regards,

Pierre. (email : [EMAIL PROTECTED])

The only portable unit I use in my car is my Sharp MS-722 because it's easy
to put the minidisc on the unit and to remove it while driving...

I use my portable with a car and cassette adaptor and the sound is fine with
my Blue Punk System...

I used to bring a MD wallet with 12 MD or so and all accessorie inside it !
It's really great and useful. Not too long to install and the sound is so
good too !

Peter.
