Sammyboy Posted October 10, 2007 Report Share Posted October 10, 2007 I've had a little search about and read a few topics and not found an answer to this - I have a load of MP3 files that I've gotten from various sources (but have no DRM on them). I was wondering if I can copy the MP3s over in their current format to my MZ-NH700 MD unit or do they have to be converted by SonicStage to ATRAC format? I can't try it just yet as still waiting for the player to arrive (Damn UK postal strikes! ) just asking in advance!I'm guessing as well if I turn the DRM off I could in theory put the music on another computer or device if I wanted to as well?Cheers!

Sparky191 Posted October 10, 2007 Report Share Posted October 10, 2007 You'll have to convert them. The MZ-NH700 is a 1st generation HiMD and none of them support MP3's directly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobt Posted October 10, 2007 Report Share Posted October 10, 2007 You will notice no loss of "quality" in the conversion, and it is quick. Enjoy your new toy and welcome to the foldBob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sammyboy Posted October 10, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2007 Thanks for the welcome/advice Sparky and Bobt! Glad that conversion won't degrade the quality (but I guess that depends on what ATRAC bitrate I use).I seem to be collecting MDs pretty quickly already - also got a MZ-E909 and MZ-R500 on the way too!

He said you won't notice it. Not that it doesn't degrade the SQ. Because it does. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
