The MD is a cool thing as far as the usefull medium is concerned We for
example use it on the radio, but it has a lot of mistakes. first of all the
operating sistem that is not so good couse it keep-s loosing tracks...
Sometimes it is able to erase the whole MD just like that. The second big
mistake is a belt of frequencies that the MD is not covering and the DAT
does. Well if you are using MD's just to listen to the music is good because
the belt is hardly hearable but if you use it to record music that is going
to be relased then .....

So, my opinion is that the thing is great for an everyday use, but for
studio .... NO !
