Thou bootless clapper-clawed varlot!

I sprung $250 for a Minidisk player in 2001-02. It was badass because it came with a remote!



the downside was that I had to record to the MDs like the cassettes of old, playing the whole CD with the MD player on record; then adding the track breaks after the fact! :v:

Nothing will beat the look of minidiscs. When you open the player, and the disc pops out a little bit. I remember being amazed at the quality and convenience, after recording a bunch of friends and myself playing lovely songs.

I had a zip disc full of porn images. I remember thinking I should erase it, but by that time I didn't have a zip drive, nor did anybody else. The disc had a college application essay on it as well, but I couldn't even be bothered to destroy it.
