You may recall when I recently made a rather ill considered double-dip and bought another bundle of untested MiniDisc machines from Japan. At the end of that video I stated that I would show how many machines from the batch I could get working at some point in the future. That future is now.

I remember now though why I don’t normally announce future video ideas. A lukewarm reception, such as the one the previous video received would normally mean that it wouldn’t be worth returning for a follow up.

Nevertheless a promise is a promise so here we are and I will say that I have enjoyed pointlessly testing these. Every time I got a stubborn one to work it felt like a small win and going through a hundred machines might have been monotonous but I also found it oddly compelling and perhaps even therapeutic.

Anyway here it is - my entry for 2021’s most pointless video. A category that has a lot of competition. This is down there with The Godfather Part 3 as far as sequels that no one needed or wanted.

I’ll see if I can get on and do a short Patreon update video soon - I’ve got a few things I think are worth chatting about.

As always, take care and have a good weekend.

100 Junk MDs - How many did I get working

You may remember that I bought one hundred used and untested MD portables from Japan (shown in this video https://youtu.be/FD_-vLoJ9EM ) I promised to make a follow up video showing how many I could get to work. Here it is. In this video I share a few tips as well as the odd lemon. --------------- SUBSCRIBE ------------------ http://www.youtube.com/user/Techmoan?sub_confirmation=1 ------------- Merchandise ----------------- https://teespring.com/stores/techmoan-merch ------------- SUPPORT --------------- This channel can be supported through Patreon https://www.patreon.com/techmoan *******Patrons usually have early access to videos******* ---------- Outro Music ----------- Over Time - Vibe Tracks https://youtu.be/VSSswVZSgJw ------ Outro Sound Effect ------ ThatSFXGuy - https://youtu.be/5M3-ZV5-QDM ------ AFFILIATED LINKS/ADVERTISING NOTICE ------- All links are Affiliated where possible.

A) Patrons https://www.patreon.com/techmoan usually have early access to videos. I'll show the first version of a video on Patreon and often the feedback I get results in a video going through further revisions to improve it. e.g. Fix audio issues, clarify points, add extra footage or cut extraneous things out. The video that goes live on youtube is the final version.
