I know what you mean. I can't say I'm certain, but the context of many
emails I've read about the Gescom minidisc suggested that ... well, not
that folks necessarily bought the player specifically for this release,
but that it was the, for lack of a better comparison, "killer app" that
convinced them to make a decision that, in other circumstances, they may
have made at a later date.
