Aw. So sad. :( I wanted to make a syndicated acount for CBC business news (as I have to keep up with that for my course) but it seems as though the RSS ( http://www.cbc.ca/business/newsdelivery/cbc.css ) cannot be validated by the checker thing I tried. Very sad.

My sister let me borrow her minidisk player for the semester and now, finally, after a strenuous netsearch for the program and a long fight to figure out how it works, I've made a disk to listen to. ...but why are there so few songs on the minidisk? I thought they were supposed to hold like 5 hours? I got maybe 2 on. Disappointing, really.

Only the Sony MDs can record 4-5x the quantity of a CD, but you have to set it to record in LP4 mode. The recording program should allow you to choose the modes you record onto the MD.

Also one thing I notice is that between model years, Sony tends to change up or heavily upgrade the software used to encode onto MD. I hope the one you have matches up with your model! It might make the difference, but I think I'd have to do more research to know for-sure.

This is a Sony MD. It's about a year old model. I went to the Sony help site to get all the right upgrades and programs and such, but I was still quite surprised at how few songs fit on it. And the lack of a random play feature is not so cool.
