5.0 out of 5 stars Great money saver, December 12, 1999

MD LUVVA FROM LEX (Lexington, KY) - See all my reviews

These disks DO NOT come with individual hard cases, but I never use them. They come with 4 storage cases (5 md's/ case). But, I use my portable MD player all the time, and the hard cases take up a lot of space. Plus, I have a minidisc wallet, which, like cd wallets, only has room for the discs themselves. This is the cheapest price i have seen for md's because they don't come with individual cases, which I don't think are necessary anyway. Md's are basically indestructable as it is.

These Minidiscs are and exceptional value! You get 20 discs in all kinds of different colors, which really helped me organize my collection better, it makes it really easy to know what MD to grab just by the color! My only beef is that the discs do not have the little directional arrow on them so some people may have to fiddle with the disc different directions to get it in the slot. These discs do not come with individual cases, but does anyone REALLY need those? You get four individual hard boxes that hold 6MDs each. The price here on Amazon.com is about HALF of what I can find locally in the stores and by far the best I've found on the internet! (and believe me, I shopped around for a while) The discs arrived within 3 days of the order. VERY pleased.

5.0 out of 5 stars All MiniDisc's Are Created Equal, August 23, 2000

One customer has experienced trouble with these MDs, but I can't imagine it's the media. I've used 80 of these discs already and haven't experienced ONE bad or problematic disk. The price point is great. I don't know how long the other manufacturers are going to get away with charging more before people wake up and realize that, unlike blank video and audio tape formulations, which do vary considerably, digital recording should essentially be the same quality. (Are the Memorex discs constructed to last a shorter time? Is the binder worse? Only time will tell.) I haven't found a better price and have found these discs perfectly reliable. And I actually prefer the storage cases coming with five but holding six MDs to individual packs. Who wants to do all that labeling?
