Christopher Posted May 19, 2006 Report Share Posted May 19, 2006 It appears that one of the oldest discussion forums dedicated to Minidisc has finally shut down. The website will be archived as there are several well-written reviews of vintage units. Feel free to leave comments of your experiences with Minidiscussion..+++ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaylen Posted May 19, 2006 Report Share Posted May 19, 2006 That's too bad. When I got my N505 from a friend who abandoned the MD format, MiniDiscussion was one of 2 websites that was recommended to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supersaphir Posted May 20, 2006 Report Share Posted May 20, 2006 Well...What can I say... I didn't even know that site existed until you mentioned its closedown!Anyway, MD's NOT DEAD ! ! !I've seen the future of MD as "Blu-Ray-MiniDisc" since two years and it will probably take at least another two or five years to have those units, which are: Blue-Ray-MiniDisc-HiMD-Walkman-Audio/HDV-recorder and Camcorder/Photocamera/Data-Recorders all in one with a 3,5' OLED-color display and increased full USB 2.0-compliant-reading/writing-accessability In other words: The external buy-on universal early-21st century floppy drive. Or why else do you seriously think Sony is putting all its efforts into MD and Blue-Ray, two supposedly "delayed" technologies? THINK BIG!I'll wait and see and dream and hope that Sony looks into the forums for MD-user's advice and comments. Please don't tell me that I might be wrong...

JKIM Posted May 20, 2006 Report Share Posted May 20, 2006 wow, seems like a really long time ago that i got my r70 and went to that site to find out more about md. then i found the MDCF when minidiscussion started getting really bad with spammers. haven't been to it more than once since then, still, it's too bad. at least everything's archived.

ericwhitney Posted May 22, 2006 Report Share Posted May 22, 2006 Hi everyone,Glad that people found the MiniDiscussion site useful. I used to moderate all the boards and delete all spam messages, but it got to a point where I couldn't keep up with it all anymore. The site has run completely unmaintained for the last several years, and the boards really fell apart because of that.Anyone interested in the MiniDiscussion.com domain name? Or the website? I'm done with it, and am happy to host an archived copy of the site on my own domain, but if someone sees some fun in making a project out of this, feel free to drop me an e-mail at ericwhitney@minidiscussion.com.Thanks!-EricMiniDiscussion Webmaster (1999-2006) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
