LupinIV Posted December 16, 2005 Report Share Posted December 16, 2005 Ok, apart from the usual problems and guessing, is there anything hot going on with the format?I mean, any official news, or discovery or any cool thing?Are we just stagnating?Where are our Sony infiltrates?I am really thinking about switching to an HD for listening purposes.I am just carrying too many minidiscs and it's becoming a burden!!!!Well, I hope we can get some insights on the future of the format!!!Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mercury_in_flames Posted December 16, 2005 Report Share Posted December 16, 2005 (edited) For me, the only time that himd would become of any use would be if I needed to record. I've got a standard md portable and an md deck. For my basic needs, those are fine. I have my hd5 for portable use. I wouldnt mind having an nh1 but the writes speed's a killer. When Kurisu gets back from CES we should get to hear some tales of whats to come. Edited December 16, 2005 by GregTheRotter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobt Posted December 16, 2005 Report Share Posted December 16, 2005 With my NH1 and simple burner it takes 3 to 4 minutes to load a cd, not much time in my books. Beats real time all to ***ttfnBob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mercury_in_flames Posted December 17, 2005 Report Share Posted December 17, 2005 (edited) it takes 30 second with a dap, here lies my problem As I say, if DRM gets horrific to the point I can't put any illegitimate tracks on my dap, then real time md recording, here I come. In which case, I will wish I had bought into himd for the amount of tracks you can put on a disc. Still, Ive heard quite a few people complaining about write errors etc. hmm.

LupinIV Posted December 17, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 17, 2005 (edited) So, no gossips from Kurisu yet?Is anybody else going to the CES in Las Vegas? I wish we had insiders....What's going on on the development side? I remember people working on codecs for linux and other platforms. Any success?I believe that the knowledge is there, but I guess people is afraid of law suits. Remember that reverse engineering is not always illegal if for educational puproses. That's what they do all the time at MIT. Edited December 17, 2005 by LupinIV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
