Those impracticaly large fragile things, failing in cars with the slightest shock? Never cared for them.
Casettes you could throw around, tape them if necessary.
Later minidisc for a short time and digital mp3/flac... So no thank you, like DVD's spoiling plenty of movies by giving up in the middle due to a tiny scratch these things were a mistake.
It was so cool. Until that moment the train doors close and you realise your very expensive player is on its way to the next station... Yes, it's still a trauma.
I loved minidisc. It was just too late to the game with mp3s hot on its heels.
