MiniDisc: 1992-2007

Well, it’s been a good fifteen years.Sony has officially cut off support for SonicStage. It’s been over a year since the introduction of their flagship (and evidently, last) unit, the MZ-RH1. They’ve also abandoned the ATRAC format in their newer flash units.

Over the last year, most brick-and-mortar retailers have stopped carrying blank media for the format, and companies like TDK and Maxell have stopped making them altogether.

Lower the flags to half-mast, gang: this really is it.
