one of the guys i work with needed some music for a flight to cancun and i told him to get a minidisc. so he buys one and i make a music disc for him. he comes back from cancun and says the disc didn't work. it was a lp4 disc. it's april 2004. why would sony sell this piece of garbage that doesn't play in lp4 mode and doesn't even record. it behooves me. why is abc warehouse selling this crap. do not i repeat do not buy this model under any circumstance. i don't care how old your mother is.
