I have just invested in Minidisc, which, along with my CD collection, is quite sufficient, thank you. Now if the rest of the world wants to go off and enjoy MP3, or next year's big fad, fine. I have neither the need, nor the disposable income, to follow along. Just leave me sufficient blank media and harware for when I need to replace or upgrade and I'll be happy. But I am sick of being manipulated by these damn companies - and will not buy into something that I don't need. Take away the support for MD, and I will guarantee that it will be the last new medium into which I buy. Best regards to all, James __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
