Yeah! Buy an Ipod! Or just save yourself 300$ by searching through the forum for a solution/advice.

Me too! But that doesn't prove anyting! It's heresay! We all know that MD won't be around forever, but it's here now, so enjoy... or at least enjoy the bits that aren't crippled!

IT'S TRUE!!! ALL OF IT!!!! NetMD, HIMD and even the top secret 3rd generation with the .avi support and the 25GB disks! I was told in person by someone who knows. Yes, the King - Elvis Presley told me in person yesterday. But he said not to tell anyone... doh!!!

I'm sure that if Sony put 100% into MD the whole "Walkman" market would be theirs again. But they prefer to look for restrictions on this and that which provokes hardware and software problems. Imagine DaVinci painting a masterpiece and then chipping bits off!!! Sony, you make me wanna just sit down and cry ps Can we have a Sony smiley that would just be a turd?

Greetings I've been wondering which is the best format to keep music on my HDD. All of my music is (like most people's) kept in Mp3 but when I create an MD, SonicStage has to convert this for my NetMD. Would ripping CDs into WAV ot ATRAC speed up SonicStage? I suppose that if I rip in LP2 bitrate and create an LP2 MD wouldn't need anymore converting. I'm awaiting my first 1st generation machine so I'll probably be using HI-SP but I'll be keeping my NetMD. I'll end this rant with a summary of the above - how can I speed up SS?

Are the 2nd generation problem free?
