Okay, I'll make this quick and simple. Is your Hi/Net MD recorder ID'd by your PC as being "your own"? Can I connect MY RH910 to a friends PC with SonicStage and share my music with her computer or will that not work? Thanks in advance.

There are many threads on this already, but here's an attempt at a short answer:

With legacy MD / MDLP discs you cannot upload to a PC via USB, period.

With HIMD-formatted discs [1GB or reformatted standard MDs] you cannot upload tracks that were downloaded from a PC via USB, period.

With HIMD-formatted discs you CAN upload tracks recorded via the analogue or optical input; this will work to any installation of SonicStage, but can only be done ONCE. During uploading, tracks are marked as uploaded, and cannot be copied again from the original disc. If you try to do so, SS will [depending on the version you're using] either simply erase the tracks as though you're during a "check-in" [NetMD terminology] or give you a warning that the tracks were already uploaded and will be erased [sS v3.x does this].

The entire purpose of HiMD's digital rights management is to prevent you from copying tracks from one PC to another.

The even shorter answer:

No, you can't share music using HiMD.

huh.gif I was under the impression that you coupld only upload analogue recordings, and not digital (USB or Optical)...?

???

Might have to try this out...

EDIT: -just realized that I have uploaded quite a few recordings that were recorded thru optical... -doh!
