Thanks. Not to beat a dead horse, but there has been plenty of misinformation here and there. I wanted to make sure that you have observed this to be true even on home-recorded tracks, which really shouldn't be DRM'ed? It is suprising to me, since for example you can burn your own DVDs with CSS if you really want to, but most home users happily churn out unencrypted DVDs. So the Hi-MD disc has an encrypted file even when you recorded it yourself in PCM, huh? Thanks. Jeremy
