Retro looks, advanced technology.

by sl33per , Sep 07 '01
Pros: Great sound, low cost, long battery life, retro looks.
Cons: Slightly noisy, annoying remote.
The MZ-R70 is a good, high quality MD Player/Recorder with lots of features. Its high sound quality, long battery life and supplied accessories (Optical cable, carrying pouch) make it worth every penny (cent if you like). It is incredibly small, being...

a great little machine

by pjlead , Jul 30 '02
Pros: Battery life, long play, optical line-in, mic input, very light
Cons: remote control, no 'return to start' button, no line-out
Quick review: great machine - great battery life, great quality. It's funky, i love it. It's got long play, which is grand. If you want to know about my little idiosyncratic issues with the way it works, read on. Other reviews have already covered how...

TO BUY OR NOT TO BUY.

by readerz , Jul 03 '01
Pros: light weight, good battery life, excellent sound
Cons: does not come with a serial port with the digital pc link

Dynamite player, BIG BOOM, small package!

by mkduffer , Aug 12 '00
Pros: Great sound quality, great battery life, compact size.
Cons: No backlit display, cheap remote
I'm know I'm dating myself by admitting this, but I remember when Sony first unveiled the minidisc music format. A reusable digital recording medium with random access and compact size, what was not to like? Unfortunately, the "portable"...

Good buy

by carlo_vw , Jul 02 '01
Pros: Good looking, portable / small, long battery life
Cons: No line out. How about fm tuner functionality?
I'm really impressed with this MD from Sony. It's well built, easy to use, and unlike most gadgets this is one that actually serves a useful purpose.

Sony bought out the MD to replace the tape. I think the only reason why it never really...

The Best Of Both Worlds

by star2002 , Apr 14 '02
Pros: lightweight, small, and comes equipped with little extras.
Cons: can be on expensive side of portable electronics.
After careful research during my endeavor to buy portable audio equipment I stumbled upon the SONY MZ-R700 mini-disc recorder and player. It is very small (3”x 3”x 1”) and easily transportable. When you buy the player you receive lots of little...

Alot of sound that you could fit into your pocket.

by NicKx2oOo1 , Jan 19 '01
Pros: small, can record with a mic, can record of your cd player and computer
Cons: really is no point for "remote control", nowhere to clip onto yourself
This Minidisc player is great. It let's you record and create the soundtrack of your life off of the computer(works great with Napster) and any other audio player. You can also record your own voice on a microphone. And if you have song on your mix that...

Good bye my CD and Mp3 Player!

by ashvinraha , Jan 19 '01
Pros: Portable, plays mp3s, has a PC link and it records
Cons: None so far
I have for a long time wanted to get myself an MP3 player or a Mini Disc player. So one fine day it was time for me to buy one. So I went to Circuit City and looked at MP3 players then it dawned on me that Mini Disc Players might be a better choice. ...

Excellent MD

by sjg98 , Nov 19 '00
Pros: Small size, great skip protection, Great for running
Cons: Remote could be better, track naming a hassle
[UPDATE: See below]
I have the MZ-R70PC model. It comes with a special usb adapter.

I initially wanted to get an mp3 player so that I could bring my extensive music collection with me on the road. I wanted something small and pocket...

Great for recording my boyfriend's concerts!!

by davemetz , May 06 '03
Pros: Excellent sound, really small and light, easy to use
Cons: no premade discs...no backlighting on the display
I bought my MD recorder strictly to record my boyfriend's band. They cannot afford studio time, so I spent a little $ on the recorder, and actually more $ on the microphone, and I recorded one of their shows. I made a cd for him with a little software...

The choice is clear: MD

by kneb , Jan 25 '01
Pros: Size, weight, colour, ease of use, AA battery usage
Cons: None yet
I've had this unit ever since my Sharp 702 horribly broke. It has served me well for almost a year now. I've used it to record my own mixes, live shows, FM radio, and personal dictations. Throughout numerous recordings, it has stayed true to the...

MD Rocks!

by mzonline , Jan 26 '01
Pros: tiny size, high quality recording
Cons: bit noisy, delayed reaction with some buttons
I never quite figured out why MD was actually picking up speed, with CD recorders so cheap nowadays it didn't make sense. Then I heard some live recordings made on MD and it hit me. When it comes to high quality audio, the standard is DAT. DAT is the...

It's a SONY is a good Device

by humbertob , Jan 29 '01

Very well designed device to convert MP3 files into traditional format music, if you are planning to get one, get the one with the PC Bundle and let's start making a great collection of your favorite hits in digital MiniDiscs.
Features like naming...

A Tough Little Competitor For CD's!!!

by rmskater , May 22 '03
Pros: Small, compact music storage. Can record ANY sound
Cons: Semi-difficult to download "Internet Music". Buttons can get "used".
In a world of copycats, one must stand away from the crowd and dare to be different. This is what Mini-disks do. They stand away from CD's.

I really don't know why Mini-disks aren't more popular. The manufacturers should find a cheaper way to...
