Can anyone tell me if there is a difference between Hi-md blank disc and Net md blank disc.

Is it compatible?

no it's not unfortunately...u need to buy the new units to be able to record to it as it uses a different way to record the data on the MD...

You can, however use the new Hi-MD's to re-format existing (standard) MD blanks for use in the new machines. This actually doubles the capacity of the disks, so you'll get over 5 hours of LP2 quality music, and so on. But you won't be able to use any Hi-MD formatted disks in current MD units, but at least you won't need to throw away any of your blanks.
