 Great Hi-MD Player! November 27, 2005
5 out of 6 found this review helpful
I thought it was finally time to replace my Irock 520 32MB mp3 player. I looked around, but I couldn't find anything that really suited it, especially in my price range of under 90 bucks. So I talked to one of my friends and he recommended a MiniDisc Player. So I looked them up and I was impressed. I ordered the MZNH600D after getting some advice from these forums and I am blown away by it. Long battery life, GREAT sound quality (at 48kbps!), unlimited storage, sleek and small design, and very easy to use controls. I love the jog dial wheel, makes it very easy to flip through large numbers of songs. Anyone who has a large library of songs to flip through will quickly grow to love this jog wheel. I currently have 230 songs on the 1GB disc it came with, I still have 663MB left. And you can hold a total of 675 songs per 1GB disc, and for 6 bucks a pop, thats an awesome deal, unlimited storage! I bought a five pack of regular discs instead though for only $6.25 ($1.05 a disc). Each disc holds 300MB, about 200 songs. Dispite what I have heard about ATRAC, I love it. ATRAC3plus sounds fantastic, even at 48kbps, which is the minumum rate and I use it. The software (sonicstage 2.0) is very easy and simple to use. The LCD is great, you see everything you need and the song/artist name scroll across the screen so you can see all of it, its only missing a backlight but I can live without that. I couldn't be happier. And best of all this thing was only 80 bucks, and with ipods as much as 300 bucks, this is a steal. I am now a diehard Sony Minidisc fan and I will always recommend them to others.
 It is not really a mp3 player!!! October 11, 2005

After buying this for almost one, I decide to write a review for this machine.
FIRST, this is NOT a true mp3 player!!!
I was convinced to buy this from amazon.com mainly by the long battery life promised by SONY, and high capacity of the 1GB Hi-MD. This turned out to be true after I tried the machine.
However, the use of this machine is a painful process.
I have quite some collection of mp3 and wma music albums, and some mp3 audio books. At first, I thought I can just plug in this machince into my computer and transfer the files I need, and listen to the things I desire. In the end, I found, all of the mp3 or wma files must be first converted into SONY's special format(.omg) with the provided hassel software, then you can transfer and listen them. The conversion takes so much time, although the transfer of the converted files are pretty quick. In the end, I have to quit the using of this and replace it with a Creative MuVo TX FM 1 GB MP3 Player.
This is not a true mp3 player!!!
SONY's thought are very different from other mainstream mp3 companies!!!
Excellent player!! just some minuses... August 16, 2005

This player is really amazing... i really recomend it!
PROS:
*The sound quality at 64kbps is excellent... I can't tell the difference between atrac3plus at 64kbps and MP3 at 128Kbps.
*I was able to store 36 CD's on one minidisc and 38 on the other one...
*Software isn't really a problem as other reviews have said. I recommend that you download the 3.2 version from the internet.
*Small enough to fit in your pocket!
*Battery life is very good.
CONS:
*The wheel is somewhat hard to move! (Don't expect it to move like the ipod's one)
*The screen is not backlit so it's really hard to see it at night.
*Takes about 15 minutes to copy each CD into the player (Note that I'm using an USB 1.1 instead of a USB 2.0 which is faster)
*The headphones are not the best... but you can better ones for 15$
*You will need to use the custom EQ to set your best desired sound since the standard setting is really bad...
Buy this player unless you have enough money to buy an ipod! If you can buy 1 or 2 blank minidisc extra (you can fit about 35 CD's on each one at 64kbps).

When I dropped my original MD player I had to replace it in a hurry. I didn't think to look to closely at this product and wish I would have. My original one allowed me to record to MDs by several different ways. With this one you can only go directly from a computer to it. Also no microphone function on this one either. There is also no ability to use AC with this so you will be stuck using batteries.
The software that comes with this is not very user friendly but once you get the hang of it you might not think it is so terrible.
Can't beat Sony Sound Quality...this player Rocks...this is not a Trash. August 3, 2005
