A video about Sony Minidisc from the beginning to the end.
..................... click SHOW MORE.
In this video you'll see the first machine and the last machine as well as some in-between. There's talk about MD-LP, Net-MD and HiMD. It's a personal retrospective of a format that was loved by many people around the world but one that is all too often judged purely on it's lack of performance in the US market.
