obscure formats
Robbie's next album is to come out on a MMC card.
I love obscure formats, once upon a time there was even an album that came out on micro-cassette, and anyone remember the Philips DCC digital compact cassette? That lasted all of about a week. I've even seen proper Minidisc albums on sale in our local branch of MVC (they must have kept them well hidden -because before that sale I'd never seen them before.)

I bought a Sony minit-disc hi-fi seperate once on a whim because someone said they had some old music-hall 78's he could put on disc for me( I collect novelty songs etc.) but after one exchange of discs he decided he didnt want to be bothered anymore! so I'm stuck with this thing, sandwiched in between my cassette deck and the amp. gathering dust.very sad. It was incredibly difficult to figure out the controls too!

you've just reminded me the bf bought a minidisc recorder/player hifi component thingy - I think he recorded only a handful of discs off cd and that was that. it's never been used since. he did buy his brother a portable last year - but not one for himself... mainly because they're still so darn expensive for what they are.

I bought a minidisc player years ago. Only so I could make digital recordings of CD's. I used to hate keying in track information.
When CD-Writable drives became cheap I quickly dumped the MD player.
There was never much released for it, anyway.
