The end of several eras. Sony announces: “In February 2025, we will end the production of all models of Blu-ray disc media, mini discs for recording, MD data for recording, and mini DV cassettes. In addition, there is no successor model.”

Sony lopettaa tyhjien Blu-ray -levyjen valmistuksen helmikuussa 2025
Mutta hämmentävämpää on se, että yhtiö kertoi lopettavansa samalla myös tyhjien MiniDisc-levyjen ja MiniDV-kasettien valmistuksen. Hämmentävää tässä on se, että harva olisi arvannut, että etenkään MiniDisc-levyjä valmistetaan vieläkin.

Sony ending production of #MiniDisc
wait what the fuck? you mean minidisc isn't just an optical disc in a funny shell? its a magnetic rw format like a floppy disk is??? why the hell didn't we put that in everything!!! i bet there's some licensing reason but god damn we missed out
Just had a #MiniDisc delivery. These are destined to be overwritten, but I guess today I will mostly be listening to... Aled Jones and "an excellent combination of 2 CDs worth of haunting, atmospheric music with some great voices and music"
I still have my Sony MZ-N707 #MiniDisc player (my first was an MZ-R70) and it still works, so last year I went through all of the discs that I could find (I still don’t know where my Sony Neige MDs went) and found the one that has recordings from 25 years ago of my friend!
I’m therefore quite excited to see that the MZ-N707 is one of the models that’s supported by Web MiniDisc Pro’s “homebrew” features that should allow me to digitally copy the audio data from that disc
Obsolete Sony has a fantastic "Visual Guide to Sony MiniDisc" tribute.
If you haven't already done so, you should really check it out.

for two years i've been promising myself i'd order a big box of used minidiscs from japan
i finally gave in and order some last week. fifty discs, all with cases, and various makes and models. i am in wonder at the many different colours and translucencies
some have english labels, and appear to be old live band recordings
I have satiated my #minidisc withdrawals. just purchased a Panasonic SJ-MR250 set with the dock and speakers off discord. one of these. super excited
shoutouts to #minidisc gotta be one of the most aesthetically pleasing formats of all time
Please Insert a MiniDisc
