I just have a portable recorder - the one stop solution :-)
Pre-rec MD has never had any great appeal to me - as blanks are so cheap,
the pre-rec ends up costing more than the CD and a blank. Also I can't do
MD->MD copies I'm screwed if I want to take some tracks from an album for a
compilation. I never bought anything (other than my first couple of singles)
on tape either.
Interestingly enough though, my local (UK) record shops now have pre-rec MD
displays that are quite a bit larger than the tape ones.
