Mini disc.

I had a Philips CD-Interactive. Played movies, games and CD's. Very early PS2 in other words.

I bought my Sony Mini Disc player because I felt I should have one, just like I have an iPod.

I have the same problem with both, I have that much stuff I don't know what to put/can't be arsed to put stuff on them!
