This feature is nice.
I have this feature in my car stereo, Sony CDX-C90. It has a dot matrix
display, and while playing an MD (in my MDX-65 MD changer), if I press
the LIST button twice, the screen divides into 3 columns. The 1st
column just has the number and elapsed time of the current disc and
track. The 2nd and 3rd columns are divided into 5 rows and shows the
titles of 10 tracks on one MD. You can press the up & down arrows on
the remote control to select the desired track, and press ENTER on the
desired track and it will start playing it. It's pretty cool, pressing
the LIST button just once will do the same thing, but instead shows the
disc titles of each of the MDs in the MD changer. It does the same
thing with CD-Text encoded CDs as well.
The C90 and MDX-65 is a pretty nice combo. Sony could easily implement
that into an MD portable or even home deck.

Sony MZ-1 had this feature, but that portable was the size of a brick.
