Review: The Sony MZ-N520 Blue Net MiniDisc Walkman is NOT an MP3 player. It is a mini disc player, so it contains different hardware, uses different encoding [ATRAC rather than MP3] and requires mini discs, which retail at about £1.00 each. However, you can just as easily transfer your MP3 or other audio files from your PC to this recorder AND mini discs are an extremely robust medium, so don't be put off. The old problem of having to transfer music in real-time, has been solved as Sony say you can transfer a CD's worth of music in 2 minutes. At this price of less than £40, this is a tremendous bargain and a really superb alternative for people who refuse to be caught up in the iPod hype. |
