I have a mini disc player in my VX. Why spend a lot of money getting the Isuzu version? I pulled that piece of garbage CD changer out of the bottom slot and threw it away the first week I had the VX. I put a pocket in there instead and so I have a little more storage room in my VX. I am using the latest MiniDisc player from Sony and even with LP2 compression, I cannot tell a difference between the compressed version and the CD version.
I have been an avid MiniDisc fan for about eight years now. I have a NetMD recorder that I use to burn all my MiniDiscs. I used to use the OpenMG software to store my songs, but I lost all my songs when my main hard drive crashed. Seems there is a backup system on the Internet for protecting yourself from this type of problem, but I found out about this after the crash. Now I use MusicMatch to store all my songs in MP3 format. OpenMG can convert them to ATRAC compression and put them on the MiniDisc with titles.
Let me know if you would like to know any further information. I would be happy to help out in any way.
