[Imc] MiniDisc decks

[Zachary C.Miller]

I had a conversation with Paul K and maybe some others about whether
or not minidisk decks with optical digital in AND optical digital out
were actually still on the market. 

At least from crutchfield.com they are:

Kenwood MD-203 - $249.95
This one has both Toslink and coax both in and out. No computer interface.

Sony MDS-PC3 - $399.95
This one has Toslink both in and out. It also has a USB PC Link with
Windows software. The software lets you edit the disk directly using
the computer (but not automatically transfer audio from the disk to
the computer). It also lets you automatically transfer files to the
disk from the computer.

It seems like the MDS-PC3 might be a very good addition to the sergei
setup at IMC eventually. 

For a good up to date overview of all Minidisk products that exist on
any markets:
