Panasonic's new SC-PM71SD Micro System Hi-Fi lets you rip to SD

By Peter Rojas

Probably not all that many people who would actually lust after this, but we can't help but think that the SC-PM71SD, Panasonic's new Micro System Hi-Fi, is filled with awesomeness anyway (or at least a little bit of awesomeness). Why? Because it's a bookshelf stereo with an SD memory card slot so you can rip music from a CD,
cassette, or radio and copy it directly onto an SD memory card (which you can then pop into your PDA or MP3 player or smartphone or whatever). Not sure what they do about ID3 tags and all that (and oddly enough it only records in the AAC
format), but sometimes it's the thought that counts, you know?
