It's based on every Sony product, and having owned quite a few I can attest that this can be applied to nearly all of them. Especially that goddamn MiniDisc player I bought so long ago. |

Tell me about it. I still own it, too. The MZ-R70.
It was the best thing ever in grade 10.
I also owned a 64MB Samsung YEPP, one of the first ones they made. Suffice it to say, I learned my lesson about early adoption. Mostly. |

I got the R90. My useless piece of crap MD is hotter than your useless piece of crap MD, lol.
I think that was also around grade 10 for me. I guess, let's be fair, the new wave of MP3 players weren't out yet, the newest shiniest was like 16 MB flash memory which you could fit oh, a whole 3 songs on, more if they were encoded at the worst ear-bleeding bitrates. So it was either an MD or a big bulky Discman and the MDs were just slicker.
Not that I'm trying to justify my enormous waste of money, but there was at least some logic to the purchase. |

I still have this thing stored in a box somewhere.
In my days we used to listen to music on reels in what we called cassette tapes. ;)

I remember my dad listening to reel to reel audio. That was the same time we had 8 track, which was also the time there was quadraphonic. Now that didn't do to well until one day years later surround sound was "re-invented". I don't want to get into my mom owning 78 rpm records about as thick as steel... but more fragile. She had Elvis n' such. |

Heh, I used to have one of these:
Ironically, I would have to say that it was one of Sony's better products. |

I honestly can't tell the difference between a 128kbps MP3 and a 320kbps MP3. |
