RIght. At least in Sony's case, their miserable "software" is more
about protecting copyrights than providing you a way to listen to the
music you paid for.

And if you record something of your own (meaning your own live music,
for example) onto minidisc you CANNOT transfer the digital files to
your PC. You can transfer music from a minidisc to a PC only by
analog means in Sony's world.

For portable tunes stick to MP3 players.

I use a small mp3 with open air type individual head set, each clips o
to each ear, and it runs on a single aaa battery and I can get about 10
12 hours per battery. It stores about 60 songs with a extra memory car
installed. I couldn't ride with out it unless I'm riding with a group
