  13. >:     Hey, here's an idea about a medium for digital audio.  How about a
  14. >: cartridge, such as a video game cartridge, that has stored music info.  How
  15. >: much memory would that take?  The new cartridges would have no moving parts,
  16. >: and nothing to scratch/bend/warp/break.  Any comments on this idea?
  17.  
  18. What about the electrical contacts of both the cart and the playback unit.
  19. Having lived with Synth and video games that use cartridges I think the
  20. issue of contact integrety needs to be solved.
