  1. Isn't UMD, as launched on the Playstation Portable, a 2Gb disc? It looks just like an MD in a fancy (and badly designed) case. There may well be other differences, as noted, in track pitch, laser wavelength, etc. Cheers Alistair
  2. Personally I find HiMD 48kbps (as bad as you can go!) sounds very similar to MP3 128kbps on my Rio Nitrus when using the same Sennheiser earbuds. I call it "FM radio quality". Good enough for the office and the car. As you move up the bitrate scale the recordings sound more and more open and natural. I can get over 50 CDs on a single 1Gb HiMD disc in 48k mode.
  3. You need WinNMD! http://winnmd.net/winnmd.htm This is pinned on the NetMD forum next door. It uses USB control of your NetMD device to control playback through audio or optical input to your PC and also has the ability to name tracks and albums automatically from CDDB. the really neat part is that it keeps tracks separate so you don't have to go through a giant WAV file chopping it up to get back to your original album track list I'm using this to transfer an extensive talking books collection from original MD and NetMD to WAV and thence to MP3 and/or HiMD.
