Well, if by ‘similar priced’ you mean: a very cheap player, it might make sense.
But in 2004, I carried an iPod 4G which had either 20 or 40 gigabytes of storage. You’d need a backpack full of MD’s to match that, even if you put lower quality songs on there. I had my iPod filled with everything from podcasts, audiobooks, complete albums and enough random music to never hear the same song in a month. Absolutely loved that iPod!
MD always felt like a ripoff to me because you had to buy a bunch of overpriced disks from the sole supplier and then carry them all around in a little wallet.
As soon as the first hard drive MP3 players like the Rio came out, MD was a dead end.
