My NetMD didn't get lost, but the question is: did it get fixed?
After say 7 months using it (it has 1 year fixing warranty). Its stopped to burn and started doing weird things while playing. I took it to a
Sony Center and they told me I would have it repaired in at most 1 month. Well after waiting over 4 months for my MD (I even bought a cheap mp3 Discman in the meanwhile I borrowed a friend of mine afterwards, one
needs music) I recovered my MD, the only thing that would make my MD recognisable was a little noticeable scratch on the back side. The MD seemed to burn and play properly, but:
- The case didn't close and lock properly.
- I had a hard time trying to eject a MD, it kept sticked somewhere.
- There where many problems to connect it to the dock station. Sometimes it connected the PC, sometimes it conencted the power supply, hardly ever both at once.
- The hold slider came in HOLD position, but it still worked... shit, it was loose, didn't work, great news for portable devices
As i was really upset with the technical service, I really meant I would carry on with that piece of crap as long as it played my music properly.
But some months later while burning it just kept getting stuck in certain songs without being able to stop it. Undocking, playing around with buttond, trying to eject didn't work. I could only take the battery off to stop it from doing whatever it did. Obviously, after doing that (hey pals, don't try it at home) the MD became unuseable, since the TOC (Table Of Contents) could not be written (it's written when burning is finished).
Warranty was over. Repair warranty was also over. NetMD is in the hapy world of garbage land.
I just bought an iPod at a local Fnac, hope I'm luckier this time.
