Well, if you manage to get unwritten DVD- media, you need a drive with special |
| 9 |
firmware and you even can pretend a different manufacturer ;-) |

It is however hard to get this special firmware... |

You seem to be anti-DVD- because you uncorrectly believe that it is related to |
| 27 |
the film industry. You are wrong. Pioneer asked the fil industry to make a |
| 28 |
useful proposal before Summer 2001 and as this proposal was not made, Pioneer |
| 29 |
started to sell the A03 for 1000 US $ - together with the prerecorded media |
| 30 |
format. |

I did give these arguments: There are variouy problems media compatibility of |
| 37 |
you use DVD+ with different drives. |

NOTE: DVD+ does not have a round robin check!!!!!! |
