Time involved in splitting or i should say putting tracks, titleing the songs and trimming the recording from the leader grooves in and out of the lp is fun and skillfull. Anyone who doesn't like to do this is just lazy and they just want things to be convienant. That is why people are going nowhere fast. I don't know how they breathe and enjoy the end result instead of having everything there there there and not have patience. I will never ditch mds. I love them with passion and snear at those with ipods in their ears and in films and tv. I enjoy recording on them, listening to them. I'm not lazy with having things so convieniant and have no respect for my music by owning and listening to music in ipods. I hate ipods and mp3 players. They can't do or give you the pleasure that MDs can.

Original post is here: HERE (BELOW) IS THE REAL LINK TO THE PETITION http://www.petitiononline.com/BBMD2011/petition.html

NOT ME! I HATE IPODS! I WILL CONTINUE TO USE MDS REGARDLESS. I BELIEVE AND LOVE THE FORMAT NO MATTER WHAT THE IDIOTS AT SONY ARE DOING.

I have this auto md reciever and i bought it from someone on Ebay from England and it didn't come with a manual. I downloaded the manual online and it doesn't refer to the issue i have about the clock setting. You see it only shows the clock in army time. 13:00 and on to 24:00 and i don't see a way to correct this. Does any one know or have the UK model with book? I checked on setting the clock on the unit as well as going through the menu on the unit and don't see anything to change the clock further with a setting of 12 hour or 24 hour setting.

Go here for blank minidiscs: http://protape.stores.yahoo.net/audio-tape-minidisc.html I will never use Memorex MDs again. To record on a new one for the first time is fine, but when you erase it and record on it again...it is like the magnetic coding goes bad and the recordings come out either cutting out or won't play. There will be also scratch rings on the none record side of the disc like something was rubbing against the disc in the recorder.

I love the MD format. I don't buy VHS, audio cassettes anymore. I buy DVD-R discs, Music CDR (For Cassette and Lp mastering). I hate Ipods and MP3 players with passion. I will and refuse to give up the format i enjoy. I will even pay $10 for one blank down the road if necessary?

HOLY MD FAITH????????????

They are not dead in my book! I will never accept the Ipod or MP3 players! Even if i have to pay a arm and a leg for blank MD's, i will do so!

Go to Pro Tape.Com, MDs from $1.25 and up each in packs of 5's or 10's! I just ordered 40 Sony Niege's for $65.?? with shipping and handling and they will be in today (Tuesday, the 12th of January)!

I'm interested in your 5th lot. I don't know what to offer but what is the least you would take for them?

I own a Sony MDS-JE520 B and i love it! I have owned it for about 12 years. I only had to refurbish the guts one time with mint guts from another same model cause of the laser lense.

I will never give up on this format. I love it to death. I hate the MP3 and Ipods with disgust. I'm mad at Sony too! I will look high and low for blanks and devices when my devices start to fail. When i buy these things i will look on that the person selling it doesn't know what they lost. I will plan on having t-shirts and stickers made to show the love i have on this format. When i do make them i can think about making them for others too with a nice price?

I think the guy who says that MDs are a useless gadget is nothing more than a idiot! I think MP3 and Ipods are useless cause you CAN NOT DO on MP3 Players and Ipods what you can DO with a MD!

How much for all!? I can't use the HD ones though, so minus the HD ones.

I have one Sony deck model, One Sharp portable model, One Sony Car Audio Model and two dresser drawers filled with MDs! Even to mention a plastic carry case with MDs in it for the road with a black TDK zipper soft fabric case for the road as well.

I think Britian has something wrong with their heads. For one I don't think the MD is a useless gadget. I love the format and will never quit enjoying them even if it means to buy the blanks in Japan or take everyone's blanks and or devices on Ebay. I LOVE YOU MINIDISC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

With all the editing that mds can do that I have experienced. I did one more last week. I had transfered Rick Ocasek's first two solo albums to a cdr for a master copy and then to md a while back. I had a slight problem in the beginging of Emotion In Motion cause there is a speck in the groove that causes the needle to jump. I had too lightly place my thumb on the needle's side arm while the second song was going off so the needle doesn't jump and I accedently lifted the thumb slightly and caused a blib in the transfer as the soon as the second song faded. I used the md recorder last week or two and I put a track in the begining of the blib and right after it. The blib is now a 0:00 track and i tested it by moving the blib track to the end and hear to find if it was seamless and it was before I erased it. After I erased it and combined two temp tracks together it's like the blib never happened. Try that with a cdr or mp3!?

I had gotten some blank MDs at J&R Music online. I even go to Best Buy or Curcuit City to get them. I always fantasize that MDs would go up a notch with a Video MD that is like a DVD-R to go with DVD Recorders that we can record movies on MDs. This would be cool! Pop in a blank VMD and record or watch a movie.

I don't want to hear that Demise word. It makes me quiver just to thought of it. If it is popular in Japan than it will not die! I refuse to go back to cdrs or have a cd player in my car! I would even go to the lengths of getting things from Japan or China and say F America and the ignorant A-Holes that are stupid! That's just me speaking my mind Don't be offended!

Let me start off by saying what MD units I own and they are a Sharp portable, A Sony home deck. I used to have a car audio receiver one from Blaupunkt a Dallas model untill it crashed and it couldn't be repaired. I had to go to Ebay to purchase a Sony car audio md reciever from England that costed me double cause of the exchange rate. It costed me $199.73 I believe? It sucks that we can't go to Curcuit City, Best Buy or Crutchfield like we did years ago and get a MD player for our cars let alone a portable or deck unit! It even makes me sick that the human race is so stupid that they don't care that the MD format is far more better and superior than those stupid cdrs or MP3 players that I have no use for. My passion is mds! I love mds! It is hard to find blanks now! I had to go twice to J&R Music to get the Sony color collection 5 packs and the shipping was crazy, around $6 something? I even said that if I can't get another MD player for my car I will not get nothing else! I refuse to go back to a cd player and end up rerecording on cdrs that I had to get rid of 90% of them to Good Will and my best friend. I think we should put a petition to keep the format here and complain to Sony that they are not behind promoting this format 100 frickin' %!!!! I would love to say more but will in time cause right now I have to do my paper route and I haven't hit the hay yet. Please add to my topic on your frustrations on how this beloved format by us is not taking off the way we believe it should! LET THE MINIDISC FORMAT BLOSSOM FOREVER!!!!!!!!!!!! Screw MP3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Screw CDRS!!!!!!!!!!!!! (Even though I own a Philips Dual CDR Recorder for making lp masters and copies to take in my mother's car) Screw Downloading! Enough Said! I said my anger! Maybe if we have enough complaints or petition signatures and send them to Sony and all the other companies maybe they will listen? Thanks for posting the first reply to this topic Guitarfxr!
