Connecting to a minidisc via the browser
The code demonstrates how with the support of a browser, a combination of different web APIs, including WASM (for audio encoding) can be used to give new life to old technology. Also is an online version of the application that can be used immediately and a video demonstrating how to use it.

Web Minidisc now supports groups and full width titles!
Some Japanese players and remotes (models ending with 'K') have high resolution displays capable of displaying Hiragana and Kanji alphabets. Such devices will try to read the titles from the full-width slot first, then fall back to the half-width slot if the full-width one is empty. Devices with low resolution display will only show the title from the half-width slot. More about this here: https://github.com/cybercase/webminidisc/pull/49 and here https://www.reddit.com/r/minidisc/comments/nzzckj/minidisc_kanji_support/

Decompressing AAC
Slightly off topic, but if you have a NetMD device for your MiniDiscs, you could use Stefano Brilli's Web MiniDisc https://stefano.brilli.me/webminidisc/ to transfer the AAC files directly to MD. This would remove the need for optical-out and Audacity. Software details here: https://github.com/cybercase/webminidisc

Just bought an Aiwa NetMD (AM-NX9) and getting an error 'Access Denied' using the Chrome Web MiniDisc site. Any tips?
This might help ... from the installation instructions for Linux on the Stefano's Webminidisc github (https://github.com/cybercase/webminidisc)
