whats good and takes an external mic?

iRivers are better, and they can do external mic or line in, and analogue or digital, and they can record to wav or on-the-fly to mp3.

they kick the proverbial ass.

I'll sell it to you.

pm me if interested

Ah they all take external mics I think. Provided they have recording capacity obviously. I won mine in 1999 in a raffle and it's never been on the blink once! And it's used a lot. Loads for interview recording and loooads for recording and playing music. I know plenty who have gotten theirs more recently and they've had to keep having them repaired. Funny that.

there are special condensor mics you can buy for them but they are also pretty steep.. well over a hundred or so i hear.
I have my MD bout 4 years now and its still fine, i do interviews with a computer mic and it comes out fine, ive even recorded gigs and jam sessions with it.
depends how much latest technology you want but id say you could pick one up reasonably cheap second hand now.

I'd go for an iRiver to record. What lmd64, said. MD's will probably be obsolete soon, anyway - most shop assistants in the big stores in America had never heard of them when I was looking for a battery for my Sony MD.
