I'll grant that you might not be rebuying them on CD. But at least if
you were making CDR backups you'd still be able to find a machine to

I'd be crying now if I backed up anything of importance to any of the
prior Sony innovations. Anybody got an Elcassette player?

I'm not so concerned about that. As I said, in the US they're pretty
scarce, but they had enough worldwide penetration, I think, to be at
worst, similar to vinyl or cassette (as opposed to say, 8 track) in
terms of becoming obsolete.

And if worse comes to worse, I suppose I can always put them on some
type of hard drive. But that actually worries me more in terms of
safety than MD does.
