So if the RH1's a bit too pricey what else do you suggest? I'm into the idea of minidiscs for lectures mainly for the ease of use, I can put a whole topic on one mindisc and use the track (?) function to split it up. I think the MZ-RH910, MZ-RH10, MZ-NH700 and MZ-NH600 are still available here but the minidisc market really is non-existent in the UK anymore... I also need something which is reliable, my last MD (NetMD) broke after less than a year and I can't waste time getting one repaired or purchasing another one, so again all suggestions are appreciated

I don't understand what you mean, I'm not that technical.

Hey there, I'm considering purchasing the Sony MZ-RH1 as I need to record lectures primarily and live gig (my boyfriend's band), I was wondering whether it's a good investment or slightly overpriced for what I'm going to use it for (As much as I love Minidiscs for playback, I doubt I'll use them for it as I have an iPod Nano) and what's a good microphone to go with it. Problem is, I live in the UK and the Minidisc market over here has all but dried up. The best price for the MZ-RH1 here that I can find is £200. I'm a student so I'm already stretching my money limit so I'm looking to buy a decent microphone for preferably under £30 but I could stretch to £50. Any suggestions/help is much appreciated.
