A boombox with CD, MD, FM/AM Radio, 512MB internal memory and USB device support.

Available colors: RD-M2-W (White), RD-M2-P (Pink), RD-M2-S (Silver), and RD-M2-H (Metallic Gray).

The noteworthy part is that this device can transfer music from MD discs to internal memory or a USB device, making it easier than ever to rip discs. This offers an affordable alternative to the Sony MZ-RH1 for backing up MD discs. It seems to rip audio as 192kbps MP3, and will even automatically name the files with the track title.

Equipped with a USB host function that can play and record DAP music (USB mass storage compatible)
