The headpones look ridiculous when put on ... ROTF

For all the Legacy MD people , it would mean Getting a Really big Hardrive connect to the Computer and Record via Line in Evry Single Disc , into the Hard drive and store them in a Format that is universal . And for HiMD people Upload everything and do the same . so that when the units die , you still have the files and can transfer to whatever is available then . But by that time , we may have direct mental connection with the Mainframes , so we just carry it around in our heads !!!!!! ( How do we Defrag when we overload ??????)

I like the 70 , the Buttons on the Back are nicer and the Feel is nicer the 50 was kinda plastiky and light The 40 elk should be alright , I used my 40 elk with my EH 930 Hi MD player , and the only thing I noticed was the Battery life was shorter . but everything worked . Hope that helps , I was drooling over a Black EH 70 here , at Yodobashi Camera , it looked very cool.

Actually I use my 930 for playing . mine is blue

I think what will ease the sensitivity of this issue is , stated in one of my earlier posts on this thread , when it is mentioned about the "MD Killer" What Sony did , was to create the Ubiquitus combination , of Exellent Recording device , and Way Cool Music Player in one device, that we who are MD efficienados, fell in Love with, became Loyal to , and cannot reaaly accept anything less as a standard . Deep down we all know that in Order to keep recording , we will eventually need to replace our MD's ,.... But With WHAT ? What will meet the same Standard , of OVERALL usability , What is it that we will be able to Fall in love with all over again ? Does the Zoom do these things , No , it isnt your Music player , can it be used as , yes , but it will be cumbersome and your battery life will suck . What will give us the Same or Similar enough "Coolness" for us to Accept change , I think that in a nutshell is the Concept behind the thought of " Is this the MD Killer" The plain truth is , Nothing will "Kill" MD or Replace it , it just is what it is . Will there be other "Usefull things " to us , Yes Just look at RayzRay's collection ,( That guy has gear ) or any other Studio Rat like Me , with 16 channel mixers laying around the House , twenty five Mics , 8 different Multitrack Recorders , Hand Drums ,Guitars, Flutes of every Kind , ........ What replaces the MD ????? Nothing , and Nothing will another statement in an earlier post on this thread , I said ," it is easy for me to see where Technologie is headed" There has been a seperation of Church and State here if you will . The MD was the Combination of MUsic on the MOve , and Recording on the Move . Players and recorders have been seperated , and that bond will never be reunited . Recorders are going to get better ,faster , and smaller , and there will be Recorders we will adapt to and use . Heck they might even be "User Freindly " at some point . But we would still have an MD in our backpack . At least I know I will. Peace

Pete , ..... Well said. I agree .

Amen , now lets all Bow our heads , and give thanx , that we arent iPods . ( if you really look close at the iPodders , just like pets , they are starting to look like their pets !)

Beautifull Machine .

HAH , .... I am still using my R50 !!!! LOL

Talk about admissions , wow .... realisation of something , sometimes has to hit right in the face before people actually get it huh?
