<< 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, >>
Well, it depends on what kind of equipment you have, etc, but technicaly
minidisc has the capability of being better than CD quality regardless. I
have good stereo equipment and set-up and i've found that my minidiscs from
vinyl come out in incredible quality... friends of mine who also have
minidisc recorders have listened and wondered how i got them to sound so
good, so maybe my results aren't typical. However, CD-R would probably be a
waste of money because the sound what be equal or worse, but the advantage
with mini discs is they are fully editable... you can erase the first few
seconds of the record when nothing is playing, you can erase the blank areas
when the record ends.... I love my minidisc player.
