and I don't have the slightest clue on what to look for when buying one :( What features should I be looking for?

How do they transfer music onto the minidisc? Sounds like those little discs can hold a lot of music so how come they're not more popular?

If she can, I would go for a portable mp3 player. They have more features, similar price, and much more storage. I just made the switch from minidisk to iPod and am never going back.

I might have one for sale if I can figure out where I put it :p I bought it a couple of years ago for like 200 bucks. If you are interested in a slightly used one, but I would sell it pretty cheap, let me know... its a Sony btw.,

I searched for "minidisc" and even "md" and your post didn't show up :confused:

Regardless, she wants a minidisc player and nothing else. Kind of stubborn if you ask me, but that's a whole different thread ;)

i *JUST* posted it, as you posted yours ;)

hmm. girls eh? heh. that whole different thread is mine!

I told her she wouldn't like it but she's positive she will. Very stubborn :|
