This is how I feel about music too. Thanks for putting the feelings in words.

It was a painstaking process titling every song (made somewhat easier by the jogwheel on the MZ R50 I also own), but yet I enjoyed every minute. You could maybe get a NetMD recorder. You can connect it to your Windows PC and title tracks using a real keyboard. That is really nice. DO NOT TRY AND USE ANY OTHER FUNCTION OF THE SONICSTAGE SOFTWARE THOUGH. It is crap. But if only for titling, owning a NetMD device is useful.

Hello! 1. How old were you when you first 'bought into' the format? I was 17 and it was 1997. I replaced my cassette walkman, that someone stole from me in the library, by a MD player/recorder 2. Do you still regularly use your very first player? No, it broke after years of dedicated service 3. Do you regularly 'use' your items, or are some purely of interest as a 'collector'? I use regularly some of my items but have indulged myself in some sort of reasonable collecting of items. 4. Do you listen to 'new' music on your discs, or prefer to keep the format for music 'of the era'? I do listen to new music, by new I mean music I didn't listen to before, being the last Daft Punk album or Bob Dylan's Blonde on Blonde, that I decided to listen only when I finally recorded it on a MD. 5. Do you own more items than you can 'practically use'? Yes I do but, like stated earlier, I am keeping my collection reasonable. 6. Did you 'go away' from MiniDisc', only to return to it at a later date? Yes. My first player broke circa 2003 and I only returned to the format in 2010 7. Do you associate use of your player with 'fond memories', or is it a purely 'practical' consideration? I do associate MD format with fond memories of friendships and music discoveries.

Hello. I was new to the Audio T-Station board when the software crashed. I am, though still in touch with some of the members. There is a Facebook group over at: https://www.facebook.com/groups/277301552348967/ I am pretty sure everyone is welcome to join.
