I have loads of them, my head unit is fine, but I can't see any new ones.

Does anyone make MD players any more?

Alpine & Sharp made them too

MD has gone the way of the VHS player... out dated and rubbish to begin with.

MD did have the advantage of being relatively robust.  But still sony junk.

I never seen the point of a 'robust' media for inside a car.... i have a wallet full of mp3 cd's, which is just fine.

If i get really board there is an aux jack for the ipod.

I agree, MD is pointless as a copy of your CDs.  Its robustness may be useful for databackups though.  But OOF will stick to LTO tapes

Vhs is crap but MD was robust pretty good sound (better than MP3 players) and conveniant.

MD is about as convenient as a bloody great fart juice tank using all your boot space

The Walkman is pretty good, I prefer it to an mp3 player as it lasts for ages on one AA battery, and sounds great through my Sennheiser PX100s.

The home deck - definately no QS but is over 7 years old and still works well. Car player is around 7 year old too.

I don't have a CD burner in my hifi, and being small are good for Walkman type players.

As to robust - I have an icecream tub of the things

I leave originals in the house, MDs are much easier to use in a car - don't have to polish off finger marks when changing them.

Also why make cassette head units then?

I bet most solid state MP3 players last better on similar batteries to portable MD players.
