I have one..here in the States. Its nice. Nicer still is this....I have one.. Look around for a Sony MXD-D3 It is a Home Deck--AC(mains? you'd call it) that combines a CD player and MD player, recorder. SP, LP, Lp2. etc. Whats cool about it is it lets you quickly copy your CDs to mini disc complete with titles. No need to use you computer. Plus you can plug in a microphone and record to MD, or just plug into line and record cassettes or LPs to Minidisc directly also..inputing titles is just a matter of pushing one button once..then you just turn a knob to scroll in titles.. Its cool. It never use computer software to get music into my md discs and still get titles, time, and disclabels in. I found mine for $200 at a pawn shop in like new condition..I have hundreds of old time radio shows archived to it and hundreds more of jazz lps(20s through 80s) on minidisc thanks to it..I'd never have done it if I had to mess with software.
