Very few stores carry MD in the US. There are a few Sony stores in some
malls that still carry HiMD, but I'm not sure you can buy the old MD

For recording, the all digital recorders are supposedly getting pretty
good.
I'd stick with a high end unit here (I think Edirol makes some?).
For sharing bootleg recordings, I hear that nothing beats a PC and a stack
of CD-R's for burning audio cd's.
