Yes they have them, Sony makes one (model MDH-10) but you can't use it to copy music to it as audio mode is read only. If you're using it for data, its probably cheaper/faster to use something like a zip drive.

It is however, good for using on TV and movies, since the discs still look cooler and more 'hi-tech'.

I think you're right. I got confused with the disc that was sold like drugs at the beginning, those are MD's. One's MD anyways!

MO's are like DVD ram discs. however its the size of an MD
it came out after ZIP drives came out. it was small, compact and had a little more memory capacity compared to a CD.
however the DVD ram discs had larger memory, can transfer any type of files and was more popular so MO discs/drives only had a short amount of fame.

Technically, yes, but I think he's talking about the PC specific MO discs, which was bigger than MD discs.Originally posted by kenny
