  1. Someone please help me decide! Upon receiving my tax refund this year, I would really like to get a minidisc player (namely, the Sony MZ-NHF800) or the Apple iPod. I've done tons of research and they're about the same price and have the same features, provided you buy the right accessories. Maybe you can help me if I tell you what I want to do with it... I have a weekly internet radio show and I want to be able to take the recorder around with me and get spontaneous interviews or a soundbyte from the occasional concert. I also want to be able to record station IDs from people with it. I want to be able to edit the sound file on my PC. I want to be able to record the occasional radio show on FM that I might miss because I'm at work. I'm also a student and would like to record lectures every once in a while. From what I understand, I can do that with the minidisc player and a mic. Am I right when I say the mic is very expensive, though? With the iPod, I can do that stuff with a mic adapter and a mic but is the sound quality worse? I don't think I can do the FM thing with the iPod either. However, the iPod can play mp3's and the Hi-MD can't. And the iPod has so many more accessories you can get for it. I guess what I'm asking for is just for someone to tell me why either Hi-MD or the iPod is the best so I don't feel buyer's remorse. If anyone has experience with both or would like to put their 2 cents in, that would be awesome. THANKS!!!
