Summary: mzr700dpc
Review: ...I purchased the minidisc recorder to listed to music while on long runs along the canal banks in the Phoenix area. The g-protection is worthless. It skips more than my [other]full size sony disc player. As for working out in the gym or traveling, it's great. I don't recommend it for running. Because I bought this item for running, and its performance is poor for this activity, I am putting it up for sale.

Summary: Why would you want anything else?
Review: After researching for weeks what MiniDisc recorder to buy, I decided that this is the best player for the price, and boy was I right? With the DPC you can record from ANYTHING. The PC link lets you record mp3s from your laptop (but beware: the recording is a 1:1 recording, no MP3 player like instant tranfers. To puy 80 minutes on a MD, it'll take 80 minutes), My Aiwa stereo has an optical out so I can record from that with pure digital clarity. I've used it to record my band, and it sounds great. You can separate tracks, combine them, and delete them all from the player. The MDLP modes that let you put 2x -4x more music on a MD work great, but the LP4 mode looses quality. The music sounds "muddy" and the stereo channels bleed into eachother, but for the convience of having all of an artists CDs on one MD it's worth it. LP2 has no loss in quality, and the whole unit is well made. For one, it's impossible to skip! I played catch with it and it still wont skip, and if I dropped it, it could take the hit. It's tiny as anything too! The only drawback is the remote doesn't have a display, but you can upgrade if need be. Forget the R900, it's too expensive for not enough features, if you shop right you can get this player for under $200, making it even better than the others. You cant go wrong with this player!

Summary: A Review of MZ-R700PC
Review: As a great fan of music, this MD-player is excellent, as I can fit over 5 hours of music on one MD. The quality is bit worse than on LP2-mode, but it's a compromise that I can take, the quality is high enough... I have a few things to complain: when recording on LP4-mode, it usually puts the auto track-mark about 0,5 second after a new track has begun.. it is pretty annoying to fix, as when you do it manually, it still puts the mark 0,5 seconds after you press the T-mark button. And sometimes (When recording on a LP4-mode) there are some horrible extra plix-plox-sounds, so you must delete it and record again, but this is rather rare.. about one track on every two LP4-minidisks is ruined by this awkward bug.
The earphones are excellent and quite durable, after ½ years of heavy use it has worked great, only recently the left-phone has gotten weaker, and I'm afraid that soon no more sound come from that...

Summary: Minidisc players... the new era of portable music
Review: Buy this electronic device!!! Trust me. I bought mines ... and i love it. ... I am not sure about the others but Sony's players are especially reliable. Mines has taken a couple hard falls and still works perfectly. Unlike my friends Aiwa which broke ... . Minidisc players are the new way to go. Besides looking more appealing, they fit alot more songs on disks then cd's and the disks are more convenient. They are alot smaller and can't get scratched up like cd's. I can do mostly anything with my minidisc player. I go jogging in the morning everyday and not once have i heard a skip, which used to happen on my cd player quite often when i was just walking. So get a mindisc player. It is alot more cheaper than buying a burner ... and then keep buying disks that can get messed up. Trust me it's worth the money

Summary: An excellent MD Player, though there are a few notable flaws
Review: First off this is an excellent MD Player for anyone wishing to buy one. Its decently priced and comes with all accessories one needs including an AC Adapter, Rechargeable battery and so forth. I've made one minidisc in it and have tested it thoroghly and taken it with me out.The only few problems I have is I notice there are tWO hold buttons. If you hit the hold on the actual MD player you can still operate it with the remote. So remember to hit both of them to hold. Another small but still annoying thing is as others have pointed out the track labeling system, but I don't need to know track names so unlessyou do thats minor. My only other notable irk was that sometimes the MD Recorded two songs in one track when I did it from Real jukebox. However thanks to Track Marking you can slit the track where the first song ends and the second begins. Next the last flaw is the rediculous amount of time it takes to actually shut off. Really it takes triple the time of a regular CDplayer to shut off. A small thing really because I know it'll turn off but sometimes I wonder if i hit the button properly. However all in all its a wonderful MD Player. Besides those flaws i listed above the audio is excellent, the amount of tracks recordable is quite decent and it can read 200+ Tracks on a single CD. Recording, editing, and deletion are a snap to so you can edit with out fear of screwing up (though I suggest you read the manual first!). Charging is a quick thing and it comes with its own battery (yay!) However if I were you i'd stick to duracel or energizer if you intend to be on a long term trip out of the country where there are different voltage settings and such.

Summary: can take a college level beating
Review: I am in college and bought a sony MD player last summer. I use it all the time, it is great for studying because you can put about five hours of music on it. I have only had one small problem: One of the screws on the door fell out. The problem was small, the Player still functioned, and when I got home sony fixed it for me. It is also one of the most resillient players I have ever owned, I took it running (no skipping), lifting, and any other place I could. I droped it a lot but never had a problem, not even a skip.

Summary: Minidisc players... the new era of portable music
Review: I bought one about a year ago, and it is so cool. It's very
small and convenient, and I think it's very "slick." It's not that hard to learn how to use, and the screen is easy to read. Plus you only have to carry around your favorite songs, and only in a few discs that are the size of a playing card. The only problem I have with it is that it records at a low volume so you need a good pair of head phones to go with it.

Summary: Short term love affair......
Review: I bought this about one year ago (2001, Dec.). I loved it. It was light, and also very easy to operate. However, it broke right after the warranty (2002, Dec.). I had no idea why it broke....I didn't drop it...didn't abuse it.... it just died. So disappointed.
