>>>With a magnetic disc drive, you run the risk of a head crash <<< Maybe. I don't think this possible problem is insurmountable. >>>Not to mention that the quality of the Zip250 audio would be worse than CD.<<< But better than tape. Why a Zip player could be better than MiniDisk! You know, beat Sony at their own game. >>>And forget about any record companies distributing albums on Zip. WAY too expensive. A CD costs about 10¢ to stamp. An audio cassette costs about 25¢. <<< I wasn't worried about that. The Zip would be used to record your favorites - not the whole set, most of which you don't want to hear again.
