Leave CDs at home

by etonhall2 , Jun 13 '00
Pros: Lovely. Quality.
Cons: Jog Dial
I’ve got to think back on this one, because I bought it over three years ago now…

First off, unless you buy a used one, you’ll be lucky to find one of these left on the shelves, as it’s long been superseded. However, if you ARE buying one, and...

so much for so little

by ferny , Sep 20 '99
Pros: Very nice design, full featured unit, reasonably priced
Cons: The microplug in the remote
if you ever looked for a way to replace the tape format which would take advantage of digital technology, MD's are the answer. And if you ever wanted a full featured portable recorder which would record audio at near Cd quality, the MZR30 is a great...

EZ to use - Even in Japanese

by flashpont , Feb 09 '00
Pros: compact size, ease of use, battery life, quality sound
Cons: none so far
I just got the Blue Japanese version of the SONY MZ-R30 from somebody in Texas on Ebay for $211 (including shipping)and also got 5 blank mini-disks and an extra rechargeable battery. At first I wasn't sure what to do with it (especially since all the...

Can't live without my MZ-R30. If you love music, you need an MD player!

by AsianMistress , Jan 21 '00
Pros: lightweight, compact, clear sound, CAN CREATE YOUR OWN MIX
Cons: a bit pricey, but worth it
I bought my Sony MZ-R30 almost a year ago, and I am totally in love with it. The design is sleek and smooth to the touch, and it is compact and lightweight for easy travel. Some may ask why an MD is better than a CD player. Well, there are too many...

Cool gadget

by tiggergreen , Dec 10 '99
Pros: Small size, excellent recording
Cons: Tiny headphone jack for remote
I bought this product because of Sony's name. I bought it from Good Guys and immediately recorded some songs using my wife's portable CD player. The recording was very good - I couldn't tell the difference from the original. The only thing I didn't...

The Sony MZ-R30 Minidisc Player

by itslegend , Feb 02 '00
Pros: Memory for storing song names and artists, portability, and excellent sound.
Cons: Fairly heavy in weight.
I bought this product because when minidiscs came out, I was very amazed. I love to get things when they just come out, even though that is the time in which they are the most expensive. I wanted one very much because I could record off the radio, my...

A legend in its own right

by escher2 , Dec 09 '02
Pros: Optical Input, Rugged, Workhorse
Cons: A bit big compared to newer units
I picked up this little baby in '98 (can't exactly remember when, it was not cheap back then) and it has never given me a problem. I have put THOUSANDS of songs through it, both recording and playback. I have probably listened to a couple thousand...

My Friend

by owenreed , Feb 07 '00
Pros: Brilliant Quality Recording
Cons: Weight
I got the MZ-R35 as a Christmas present. It's slightly dated now but I use it almost every day. My mini disc came in a nice blue colour that looks cool.

Recording CD's is a "doddle" using the optical connection. Just plug it in,...
