"MZ-M200. The latest and best of the portable MD recorders."

Quality:
I've already used it a number of times, with Sony's Sonic Stage PC program, and it has worked quickly and flawlessley.

Value:
It's definitely worth the $300-$350 it's available for. I wouldn't pay the $400 some sites are asking, as it's readily available for $350.

Desirability:
I've seen, and have a, better looking Sony portable MD, but this one is no slouch.

Sound:
This unit is technically very good, and probably the absolutely best MD player/recorder still available. And unlike previous portable Hi-MDs, it support the original MD format/speed. And it is the only model I'm aware of that is MD-mode compatable with a PC/computer. Great product.

Support:
No problems, no contact with Sony.

Overall:
It's the latest, and the best, portable MD available. And perhaps the last of it's kind. I expect Sony to stop making MiniDisc players and recorders very soon.
