Excellent, overall

15 Helpfuls 16 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? 4 Comments
Pros excellent sound, versatile, tiny, intuitive controls, lots of useful extras
Cons downloading software is clunky and restrictive
Recommended it? Yes

Portable minidisc (MD) player/recorders offered the same sound as MP3 players, the same portability, offered more capacity, but lost on convenience for recording sound. MP3 players, connected to computers by USB or even FireWire with matching quick, convenient software, beat out MD recorders... Read full review »

MZ-N707, EZ MP3 to MD ASAP

Pros Small, Durable, Great sound quality
Cons Traditional MiniDisc cons - realtime uploads. Could use more recording features.
Recommended it? Yes

Could this be the beginning of a MiniDisc revolution? Could we be on the verge of a near perfect portable media and an efficient way to use it? Maybe, but not just yet...

The Sony MZ-N707 makes a great improvement on previous MD (MiniDisc) recorders and players with the new NetMD feature... Read full review »

Recommended it? No

The long and the short of my experience with this unit is that (a) overall, it was great for its time (a time which has now gone); (b) it sounds very good; and (c) it has been AWFUL to use. Read on for a fuller explanation of these points.

I first bought the MZ-N707 minidisc... Read full review »

Pros Convenient size, excellent sound, fast NetMD transfer, looks cool. :-)
Cons Sony's software is an interesting challenge to figure out.
Recommended it? Yes

I was looking, as many of you may be, for a portable music solution. I wanted an MP3 player, but couldn't afford the Apple iPod I really wanted, and didn't want to buy a cheaper MP3 player with limited storage.

Then I came across MD players. The storage media is cheap, and holds a lot of... Read full review »

Pros long battery life up to 5 hours on each disc high speed uploading
Cons none
Recommended it? Yes

This machine really rocks! With 5 hours capacity on each disc, 50 plus battery life, high speed uploading, remote control, what more could you ask for.

As an avid on the go type of person I love being able to have lots of music with me everywhere. The Net Md allows me to do this, 5 hours... Read full review »

Perfect MD let down by software

bymindfull Nov 19, 2002
10 Helpfuls 11 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Excellent sound on recordings and playback, ligthweight, skip-free, good battery life.
Cons Sony's OpenMg software is horribly tiresome, restrictive and invades your computer.
Recommended it? No

I bought this MD because I was in need of a high-quality stereo live-recorder, mp3 burner and good quality portable sound. I did a lot of research, listening and ended up buying this little thing.

My review is very simple. The hardware itself is not to put a finger on. The sound is crisp,... Read full review »

Best recorder in its class

Pros Long battery life, very good sound, excellent portability, comes with useful accessories
Cons Terribly buggy software, remote could be better
Recommended it? Yes

I was looking for a portable player of some kind with a few things in mind. It had to be small and portable, have excellent battery life and fit a large amount of music. The N707 turned out to be a hit on all fronts and it was less pricey than the average harddrive based mp3 player. There are a few... Read full review »

Pros Small, 320 minutes on one mini-disk. Unbelievable battery life.
Cons Could use a better remote.
Recommended it? Yes

I've owned 1 mp3 player and a CD Walkman and this Minidisc blows it away.

Before buying this player/recorder I did A LOT of research on the Internet. This player is 1 of 4 NetMD players offered by Sony and is right in the middle of the product line. I think it is the best bang for the... Read full review »

Awful bug spoils the MZ-N707 for field recorder use.

Pros The MZ-N707 is very portable and has very good sound quality.
Cons Poor software. Bad installation routine. Bug makes SCMS prevent transfer of your own...
Recommended it? No

I purchased the Sony MZ-N707 for my wife to use to record her fiddle club meetings. It works well for this--as far as recording and playing back on the headphones--but a horrendous bug makes the unit mark audio recorded with the microphone as having originated digitally from a computer other than...

Pros Great LITTLE unit, excellent sound and easy to use.
Cons The software flat out SUCKS.
Recommended it? Yes

I'll begin by telling the readers that I am a Senior Test Engineer on contract at Hewlett Packard. In particular I am a software test engineer. I've been doing that work for over 4 years. So when I say this software sucks, I mean that I can catagorize it as something that the QA team should have... Read full review »
