https://www.220-electronics.com/ is having a sale. I have bought several players from them and they’ve been great

Now, I know what your thinking, are region free players piracy? Well, it depends which country you live in

    How quickly we forget Laserdisc and Video CDs.

    Oh and UMD, but I don’t think “I want to watch a movie in poor quality on a tiny screen on a device that’ll probably run out of battery before the movie finishes” was a market anybody was really interested in.

      Sony minidisc says hi :p

      I remember a time when i was hoping they’ll implement the minidisc as an alternate removerable storage for PC. More robust compared to floppy disks, less delicate compared to CDR, and is rewritable too. LOL

        I remember ripping a CD to one with an optical cable. It split by tracks and everything.

        I felt like Johnny Mnemonic.
