RE: [HCDX] Question about Minidisc recorders

[larry nebron <b777igw@xxxxxxxxx>]

To me it would make more sense to use an Flash MP3
player with an line-in  record feature.  You have the 
best of several worlds,  first, ablity to record and
them download a complete  MP3 file in seconds to be
stored, edited on a harddrive and sent to CD or DVD's,
two the advantage of an MP3 player!

I have not used this MP3 player, but Leo Laporte of TV
tv gave it a very nice review.  Worth a look anyway

Anyone using this or recording with a flash player?
