Very nice.

I am hopeful many will leverage this work to properly extract and archive audio from MDs that would otherwise eventually be lost with the media.

> Web MiniDisc Pro (WMDpro)[0][1] is a web app that can copy (almost) any audio file onto a Sony MiniDisc using the NetMD USB protocol. It can also manage tracks, erase discs, and enable new features that extend the MD format. It is a complete replacement for Sony's SonicStage (except Hi-MD modes.)[2]

Thanks for that info. I was quoting from the linked page but haven’t used the tool myself because I don’t have hardware (yet).
