Minidisc VLOG - 02: Sharp MD-DS8/DS9

The first player-only MD unit to catch my eye, Sharp's MD-DS8, tested the limits of tolerance I have for be lied to. I bought it, liked it, and subsequently fell out of love with Sharp's marketing, and the greater body of apology built around it. Despite that, I never abandoned Sharp's portable Auvi 1-Bit Minidisc catalogue, and went on to purchase and use five separate units. These are my words about the MD-DS8/9. They are not good words. They are not wholly bad. It is, however, obvious that I'm not happy with the player. Relevant links: 1. Minidisc VLOG - 01: Elegant Lies 2. Sharp MD-DS8 http://www.minidisc.org/part_Sharp_MD... 3.
