@kaia or some variation of it, sony was TERRIBLE at naming and making several cross-incompatible formats, it.e. PS Vita needs a memory stick but some different kind that is not used anywhere else except vita

@kaia A memory card from Sony launched in the late 90s. I think I used them for a while.

@newt @kaia it was used in Sandisk's Sansa line of MP3 players for example but supposedly they discontinued those. You'd be able to buy SD cards preloaded with music but without any means of accessing the data except using a compatible device, spooky stuff.

@takao @kaia i mean, this shit is clearly doomed to failure. Sound isn't hard to extract from the DAC inputs.
