hessiess Posted July 30, 2008 Report Share Posted July 30, 2008 Around a year ago I completely switched to Linux, windows wasn't worth keeping for the sake of one device. I cannot even get it to mount as a storage device. now the only way to get music on to the thing is recording via analog, which takes a long time and you have to re-enter all the track names. also I don't have anything with an optical out so that is useless too. The main reason I bought it was because it has non fixed storage and because it can record, which is my main complaint with 99.9% of 'mp3' players. being abe to record is very usfal i.e. for archiving cassette tapes, this is slavery crippled by sonys insistence on using 'sonic stage'.it cost around £120~ about 3 years ago, and I spent about £20-30~ on disks, If I sold it with the 20 disks(normal md's, formatted so completely empty) and disk case how much would it be worth?.to prove its in good condition, here are some photos. at the moment im just seeing if it would be worthwhile selling, this is not an advert.

sfbp Posted July 30, 2008 Report Share Posted July 30, 2008 You can buy one in Australia for $99 including all sorts of accessories, and in USA on Ebay for about $130 though some auctioned items may go for under $100. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kino170878 Posted July 30, 2008 Report Share Posted July 30, 2008 (edited) £35 for the unit tops£15 for the discs and caseI think the most you could get for the lot if you waited patiently would be £60. Minidiscs are finished and people are moving on from it just like you are. Edited July 30, 2008 by kino170878 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avrin Posted July 31, 2008 Report Share Posted July 31, 2008 Why would anyone want to sell such a beauty? If you're on Linux, you may try this: http://forums.minidisc.org/index.php?showtopic=16688 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
