Sony Neige 80 minute blank minidisc 10 disc pack

After ordering a pack of these Sony Minidiscs I got an email from the MD of the seller company from Japan, thanking me for my order, and it didn't seem to be a standard email ! What a wonderful personal service !These discs work great on my Minidisc player, I have two different models made by Sony, and have only tried these discs on the older machine, and they sound really good. The newer minidisc machine should sound even better due to the later ATRAC version used. Minidisc is a very under-rated audio format system, and blows MP3 files out of the water for quality, even when you use the highest mp3 resolution at 320 kbps. Of course, you can record mp3 files onto these minidiscs too, and they will sound fine, but never as good as from vinyl or CD, as mp3's throw so much of the data away as compared to the other formats. OK, Minidisc is a lossy format too, but much cleverer design via Sony than mp3 files. which are pretty awful by comparison.I may well order another pack of these Minidiscs in due course. I have never had a minidisc fail on me over the years, when making a recording or playing back, but cannot say the same for recordable CD's.

The discsare in very good condition brand new and have recorded music on them A very good buy

Very nice discs, high quality product. So happy that you can still get these.Minidisk works for me and I see no reason to use anything else.Why Sony stopped making recorders is beyond me. Especially when I saw a Sony mini-system in the supermarket this morning which had a cassette deck, can you believe.The casing of the discs is made from fully transparent plastic, so you can see the disc inside.The storage cases are from a softer plastic, that is 'frosted'. Very nice to the touch and you can still read labels through them.The supplied labels are more than sufficient. Each disc comes with a pair of small labels and a pair of large labels. The large labels will cover most of the disc inside, but you can write more details. The small labels come in a blank version and one with dotted lines.The large labels come with dotted lines in close and larger line spacing. There's also three of those rather useless tiny long labels that go on the side of the disc. Plenty for your labeling needs!The seller is a very friendly guy from Japan that imports these directly into the UK. Highly recommended!

In the description of these mini disc's it was described as a NEIGE type and when i received them the cover just said Sony on them. I'm still keeping them but other buyers need to be aware of this before you decide to purchase them. Other than that I fairly happy with them,

Good quality minisCD, good quality and sounded good.

Sony were the innovators with Mini Disks and after nearly 20 years it is great to still be able to buy blank recordable disks built to their exacting standards.These transparent disks are still state of the art for many MD fans and they give excellent sound quality.The latest supplies from Japan are fully up to any earlier Sony disks and seem more "musical" than some current alternative manufacturers.These Sony Niege disks represent very good value for audio recording at just over £1 per hour at standard speed for music recording ( 50p or 25 p per hour at LP2 or LP4 - 2 or 4 times standard speed - for conversational voice recording, plays etc.).

BEWARE: The ten pack of "Sony Neige" supplied by Tapecity (july 2022) are not "Sony Neige"They're a lower quaility Sony, but definitely not Sony Neige" though!! - totally false, deceptive and misleading advert !I'm returning mine today

Sony minidisc recorder / players have sadly been out of production for quite a number of years now.Consequently, the minidisc blanks are not as easily sourced these days.In my opinion, the sound quality is remarkable / the editing possibilities are excellent / and when treatedwith care, the they are magnificently reliable.I've been using the Sony Minidisc decks now for years, and it is good to see that the blank media can still be sourcedfrom the mighty Amazon, ( via Japan ). Admittedly delivery takes a bit of time to get the Sony Neige discs,..but theredoes not appear to be any UK stockist / distributor who can supply them at this price point.However carriage from Japan is free, so that is a plus point.
