BTW, I just did the most obvious thing, i.e. copied the MD to the
computer, extracted the raw atarc3 data, put an valid (0x0270)
wav-header in front and doubleclicked on it, and tadaa...
it played! Plain, simple and easyand in fact strange!

there is still a huge asian market that can not be denied and so if us
