- Prerecorded MD's with up to 74 minutes of music sell for the same price as
- CD's here in Dallas. $13 regular, $10 on sale.
-
- Blank 60 minute MD's will be coming out this month, and they will sell for
- $10, I think.
-
- 74 minute blank MD's will go on sale sometime in 1Q03. I don't know how much
- they will sell for.
-
- Sony is not losing money on MD's.
