mini disc is everything it should be and more

by bhugha , Mar 19 '00
Pros: ultimate portability, great sound with the right accesories
Cons: price and limited accesories
I love my mini disc player. As an avid concertgoer (and subsequently bootlegger), I find it useful in many situations. It is useful to me and would probably be of better service to the portable MP3 crowd then their current memory hog machines....

The Future of Music

by vtolia1 , Oct 12 '99
Pros: great sound and features, easy to use.
Cons: none, its the best one
I purchased the Sony MZ-R55 minidisc player for about $300. It is one of the best investments I have made. First of all, it is so compact that it can fit easily into a pocket or a small purse. It also has a strong rechargeable battery. However,...

One of the best MD's on the market!

by OnFire34 , Jun 18 '00
Pros: sleek, ease of use
Cons: short battery life, buttons are a little small
The MZ-R55 is one of the best MD recorders on the market today. It's combination of performance and style makes it a great choice for your next MD recorder. This MD in particular has great ease of use. Since prerecorded MD's are scarcely available in...

The Sony MZ-R55

by ntech , Jul 20 '99
Pros: Small, light and good for companion on short journeys...
Cons: Lousy battery life, "phantom-problem"
Sony's latest MD recorder (released in October 1998) .... when released, it is the smallest and lightest portable recorder in the world.

When I first got the unit, I was amazed at how small it was as images found on the net sometimes make the...

Small but lacking

by rlchang , Feb 01 '00
Pros: Small size, track marking and titling from remote
Cons: Bad battery life, small buttons, no jog dial
I got into minidisc about a year ago. Being entirely new, all I knew was that this was a Sony format. So, I trusted them and plunked down a heap of money on a R55 at Crutchfield. I eagerly awaited my introduction to MD

As soon as I opened...

So you think you bought the best?

by cdobrin , Dec 21 '99
Pros: Sleek design, small, long battery life
Cons: Unreliable performance, EXPENSIVE
I bought this product because I am an huge Sony fan. I usually associate them with innovation and quality. This time I got a little of both along with a lot of disappointment. The MZR-55 looks solid, feels solid, and is quite easy to use. The only...

How Can Sony Mess Up So Badly?

by wai , Feb 04 '00
Pros: size
Cons: poor battery life, tiny buttons, and poor durability
I was using a Sony MZ-R50 for about a year before I decided to upgrade to the MZ-R55. The reason for the upgrade was because the MZ-R55 was noticeably smaller the the MZ-R50.

I sold my MZ-R50, then went out and bought the MZ-R55. Talk about...

Never seen/heard anything better

by HckyLvr456 , May 25 '00
Pros: Awesome sound quality, long battery life, easy to use
Cons: a little expensive
Minidisc is the greatest thing ever invented. They have the same amount of
space as a CD, except in half the size. Not only that, but you can record an
MD anytime you...

With newer MD's this one is crappy

by drew6652 , Jan 29 '01
Pros: Sleek, Lightweight, skip free and easy to use;I Dont use instrunction guide.
Cons: Battery Life is fair,picked up another for less than $20 so i'll have a spare
I bought the mz-r55 about 6 months ago and at the time it was one of the best, but now it just plain sucks. Ive discovered many more cons about the item. You can not get really loud volume with it, and the buffer keeps going off at random time and...

This is the best MC out there!

by deantakamine , Sep 28 '99
Pros: The best MD out there!
Cons: Pricey
This is the MD to get. This one just does it all. It records and has a 40 second memory buffer so this baby never skips. It is so tiny it will easily fit in your pocket. Recording is a breeze. The features are great. This MD player is also the...

by mk2000 , Aug 15 '00
Pros: Small and light weight
Cons: Deletes tracks after a week if mini disc still in MD
This product is amazing. Every time i look at the MD im still surprised because i never expected these small cd's or md's. The MD enables you to transfer CD tracks to the mini disc inside of it then you can listen to it. You are also able to type in the...
