zahne Posted April 27, 2009 Report Share Posted April 27, 2009 When I say new, I mean a new release by an independent artist. Not an old but sealed pre-recorded MD. It wouldn't really be a pre-recorded MD in the traditional sense but it would be an MD with pre-recorded content, in nice packaging, a quality printed label and of course labeled tracks and disc. I'm a member of a film group called Divine Comedies. We also have a comedy group called Niente Peaches. We're working on some audio content that will be released on the web but we're hoping to nclude MiniDisc in a campaign we're calling "Format Fanatics Unite!" This will be releases of the same content but on other media. We'd sell the MiniDiscs at cost with complete packaging including inserts and labels. We'll do the same for our cassette and 8-track releases. My only question is, is anyone here interested in a MiniDisc release? Assuming you like the content of course. Anyone don't care about the content and just want one as a souvenir if they look nice? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KJ_Palmer Posted April 27, 2009 Report Share Posted April 27, 2009 I'm more of a CD-MD dubber, so probably not. But then again, who knows, I might be tempted... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sinus Posted April 27, 2009 Report Share Posted April 27, 2009 (edited) I voted no for I assume by new pre-recorded, it would be 292kbps Atrac SP; By technological limitation, Hi-MD's aren't pre-recordable I remember reading, and you would want to release in a format all MD devices could read anyhow, that I understand.classical pre-recorded MDs are simply not possible anymore. I think they were all made by Sony.I think he means regular MDs made in a limited quantity by someone - so Hi-MD would be an option - and a format more obscure!

zahne Posted April 29, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 29, 2009 Hey, I'd be willing to offer this release on both MD and Hi-MD if I can get a volunteer to help make the Hi-MD versions. Any takers? Only need one! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom B Posted February 13, 2012 Report Share Posted February 13, 2012 It depends on the content. Since I don't have MD in my car, I would prefer a regular CD for that purpose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chickenvenus Posted July 28, 2012 Report Share Posted July 28, 2012 I'd buy one. I've never owned a pre recorded MD, it would be nice to buy one, a "new" one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
