i'd say go the cdr route, preferably connected to a mac or pc as opposed to
the stand alone variety
minidisc is still a good option especially for bootlegging gigs but if you
do go this route make sure you get one with
digital in and out (and no scms) so that when you copy md to md you can do
it perfectly and digitally
its nice the way you can add your own track marks/track names but this can
become a pain if you want to do this for every disc
in the best of all possible worlds you get both but if i had to pick one cdr
definately
you can rip original cds perfectly and burn copies
you can burn from cd to cdr in 8 speed
also make mp3 cdrs for transfer large amounts of data and now make audio cdr
from mp3
one option costs £200 upwards (md) the other assuming you have a pc/mac with
scsi board is nearer £400 - and thats if
you hotline the software
have fun

Subject: (idm) MiniDisc or CDR?
Recently I've seen the light on how incredibly
practical buying a MiniDisc player, transferring
all your vinyl and then selling it is. In fact, I think
I'm 100% converted this time. My question, however,
to the people on this list who do lots of digital transfer,
is which is a smarter purchase: MiniDisc or CDR (which
has better sound, is longer lasting, etc.) and what
recorder is the best buy? I'm guessing MiniDisc is superior,
but I could be wrong. Thanks,
Matt
