What Kent said.  I do own Minidisc equipment, but I don't
often get the urge to throw this on much -- it's
sporadically interesting noises and little structure.
I've got Mouse on Mars' "Instrümentals" and "Glam"
dumped to MD and when I'm in the mood for
wacky sound collage I'm much more likely to reach
for those...
