Sony kills off MiniDisc system

(1/2) > >>

Simon:
Sony has announced it is to deliver its last MiniDisc stereo next month.

It marks an end to the firm's support for the system which it launched in 1992.

The format only ever had limited success outside of Japan and was ultimately doomed by the rise of recordable CDs and MP3 players.

The news coincided with a teaser video released by the company promoting a PlayStation event with the caption: Be the first to know.

chorleydave:
Never heard of it, personally.   :laugh:

Simon:
It's time you moved on from those old 78s though, Dave.  ;D
