Jesus Christ, is anything safe anymore? I'm about to break out my Discman and start burning CDs.
A couple of years ago, I found my old minidisc player and I've been using that for music. There's a FLOSS burning application made by the minidisc community that lets you burn discs from your browser. I've been enjoying my low tech music listening, knowing it can't be tracked by some algorithm. ๐ฝ
Can you link more info on this burning app please? I am interested in getting into MD.
Certainly! The app is located here. You do need a Chromium based browser (Edge, Chrome, or any browser based on the Chromium engine) to run it, though. This is a guide to help you get started with the app. And the site that the guide is on is a wealth of information about minidisc, both its past and present.
Enjoy!
