Minidisc
Emoji representing the Minidisc, a magneto-optical disc format developed by Sony for portable audio and data storage.
The Minidisc is a magneto-optical disc format introduced by Sony in 1992 as a portable audio and data storage medium. It uses a 64 mm disc housed in a protective plastic cartridge to shield against shock and dust. With ATRAC compression, it stores up to around 80 minutes of audio while maintaining sound quality. Being rewritable, it allowed easy recording and playback, making it popular for portable music players. Since the rise of MP3 players and smartphones in the late 2000s, its use declined. However, it remains a nostalgic icon of retro media culture.
