Holy cow! This has gotten complicated for a technological dinosaur like moi.

I need to get a new small recording machine, and have been looking a mini disc recorders....but also at high quality cassette recorders as well. Can anyone help?

Is the sound MUCH better on a Mini disc than say a Marantz cassette machine?

There have been threads where folks put blue clickies to discussion groups on the various merits of different recorders but I haven't been able to call them up. I really want to get something pretty fast, so if anyone's got any "small recorder feedback" I'd sure appreciate it. Thanks a ton.
