Luckily there are many units around the world so they are still findable and (hopefully) will be for many time but the timing is really impressive!
Yep it’s a dead old format and the last equipment was sold in 2013 so it was time due but still…
On my side I’m sad to know this amazing media is officially dead, it has been an incredible format: super durable, super portable and super easy and fast to use. Wish it had the appreciation and the diffusion it deserved for real!
Minidisc is officially dead. Long lives Minidisc!
