Hi everyone, my first post! yay! I also use my himd for recording my own music stuff. I have a HD5 machine for mp3 playing now, but a MZ RH10 for recording (best display ever on that!). The recording quality is impeccable, and I have yet to hear many better portable home recording devices for acoustic stuff than minidisc, especially with the linear pcm (and of course the new ability to perform unlimited uploads of your stuff on sonicstage 3.2). I hope you're right though - a flash recorder with 8 gigs and the same recording quality as my himd (and NO drm!) would be top notch stuff! (I will miss minidisc though, i still have my original albums collection ) Cheers, sorry my post was long! jon
