Nothing lasts for ever - the dynasty of Egypt of the Pharaohs was long enough, but finally the sands of time has overcome any imperialist tendencies. That said, the powerful Babylonian, Greek, Persian, Roman and British empire were also step last, even when the leaders thought they had marked the beginning in the new world order. Zut, Hitler, even with its year 1 000 that Reich is not to go to his successor, then what you to think that a particular data format will last?
In this digital age, we have seen the information spreads using floppies disks which evolved from the variety of 5 25″ for much more sustainable 3. 5″ form factor. Once that data began to make more and more a way more appropriate to transfer needed to be used, which gave birth to CDs and DVDs later. Today, we transfer the value of the gigabytes of data on a Blu - ray disc, and we are certain that some time on the road, the more recent formats will implement. Let us pause a moment of silence for comrade - the MiniDisc.
Yes Sir, Sony has finally decided that enough is enough and will stop the MiniDisc Walkman for manufacturing. The product initially released in 1992 (wow, a year more and he would hit his 20th birthday!), with shipments ceasing from September of this year. It is because there is not more durable player MiniDisc, hence the request painful decision of Sony to stop its production.
Before the iPod resumed the world of mobile media by storm player, MiniDisc player was the epitome of the cool. Imagine wonderfully off an entire album on a disk which is only 6.4 cm in diameter, without the problems of skip that struck the Discman while getting rid of all the noise in the cassettes. Too bad format MP3 and portable audio players like the iPod scanning have emerged, which marked the beginning of the decline of the MiniDisc.
To date, the MiniDisc Walkman had sold approximately 22 million units in the world, but finally failed match the popularity of which jouite by his predecessor, the portable cassette player (the Walkman original, of course). Sony will give to many drives, so does garbage than MiniDisc drive immediately.
