S3 3' mini CD singles - adapters?
I've been re-buying much of my S3 vinyl on CD over the past few years. Picked up Revolution and Hypnotized on mini CD single. Nice items ... but I can't play them.
I've seen mention that you can get adapters that enable you to play them in standard 5' CD players, but haven;t been able to source anything. I've got a slot CD player - Bose style.
Anyone help?

Couldn't find any adaptors for sale on their own (Amazon used to do a Memorex one but doesn't look like they stock it anymore:- http://www.amazon.com/Memorex-3-Inch-DV ... B000M52EW0)
However, if you search for 3 inch CD's on E-Bay some of them still have the adaptors they came with at the time. Like this Wire one for example:-

3" CDs do play in CD players. Well, they work in mine alright.

most Cd players have a 3 inch tray inside the stadard 5 inch tray. At least every CD player I have had. Its just an indentation.

Re: S3 3' mini CD singles - adapters?
The only thing I can think of is asking around to see if you have a friend who owns a PC laptop. They usually have CD drives that lock the disc in and will usually read the mini CDs. Have them burn it to a regular disc.
I hope this helps...
I also found these:

I also read on some forum that they will probably be available at camera stores (since some camcorders use the mini discs) and/or larger retail electronic stores (Best Buy in the states).

It's nice to be liked,
But it's better by far to get paid.

Nice one folks, I'm going to check out a specialist electrical store I know.
There are 5' versions available - I got these off Ebay, should have checked out the listing better before laying those bids.
Many thanks
