YouTube MiniDisc - Rare Denon MiniDisc Unboxing

Here's a bit of a change of pace: How about a rare MD unboxing? I am a firm believer in the fact that MiniDiscs are meant to be used for playback and recording, so I don't collect sealed ones like many others do, but I had to pick these up when I was at a Hard Off in Japan, because they're quite rare!

I heard there are two variants within this same box design, so I was curious to see what's inside.

Check out the video for more details, but I was pleasantly surprised to see the handmade QC checks on each disc sleeve. Also, the discs may look unremarkable, but I think they have a nice, high-end "serious" design.

Sure they're not TDK Bit Clubs, "wa", or "ho", but I think they're pretty nice.
