December 2022 is the 30th anniversary of the MiniDisc's release in North America (it was November for Japan). Similar to my Ode to the Compact Disc - 40th Anniversary video released in April 2022, I take some time to talk about the MiniDisc as a format and my history with it, going back to 1992.

I do not touch on MD LP, HiMD, DataMD or even the loan MiniDisc video camera released by Sony. This video is purely about the compressed ATRAC audio format that is the original MiniDisc
