what WILL work??

[George]

Personally think the whole point is getting confused here. The issue was that MTU very CLEARLY states they will only certify the burners they sell to work in CDG format. That couldn't be stated any clearer. The reason for that statement is because no one drive, irregardless of the manufacturer's claims, can be depended upon to write cdg successfully, drive after drive. The technical reasons for this are beside the point. Those are the conditions in the marketplace, that's what counts, and that's what's being addressed by MTU.They have CLEARLY stated that others have purchased the same model drives they recommend, elsewhere, and have drives that were problematic. MTU bench tests every drive they sell for that reason, and why shouldn't they be compensated for doing so?

As for the techinical reasons why a particular drive will not work, that is a question that would be better put to the manufacturer of the drive. They are the ones who should be held accountable to explain their blunders, not MTU.

As stupid as I may be in these things, I can understand MTU's statement, so what's all the confusion for?
