Well, actually, the sound of a MD is compromised in relation to a CD
DAT or reel to reel.  However, in the real world, it's a irrelevancy.
The sound of a MD at its worst is significantly better than the analog
cassette.   Given the choice of a 4 track cassette studio or a 4 track
MD studio, I'd grab the MD with no hesitation.
