..I see.. thanks for all the info!

..ill play the ignorant card. The NetMD looks familiar on the walkman side. I thought the minidisc format was all the same [ ATRAC ]. am I wrong about this? The walkman doesnt record in the ATRAC format? Ill also guess I have a lower-end deck [JE320]. Is there a deck that is better, or are they all about the same? thanks, regards dw

New to MD. I came upon a deck and found it was a good means of recording direct. A little later on I used a Walkman to transfer some music files off a computer. SonicStage converted the files, the music played fine. When I took this MD disk to the big deck [sony], I get a TOC list and the deck acts like its playing, but i get NO SOUND... NOTHING. ..plays on the Walkman fine.. ?? If I record on that same MD disk ON THE DECK, I get audio just fine, "on the deck & the Walkman" This issue makes '0' sense. Any ideas??
