Query: beginers minidisc

the reason for my choise of this player in the begining is it was a present this player is not the most easy to use in the world because the only way to control it is with the remote. the cord is very long and can tend to be more of a problem than it is worth. i have also found that the batteie life is absolutly no good. i belive even if you are a beginer minidisc user most people need longer than 5 hour playback time
