Hi Len. I don't know if you remember me, the Jewish dentist from PA (it
has been a long time since we communicated, so you may not-(my apologies
to all on the list for this brief person reference).

The thing that may not equate in your explanation of SCMS is that all MDs
will allow you to make one original copy from an existing original
prerecorded CD.  In general CDs are not encoded.  The MD becomes encoded
when it is recorded (preventing you from making a digital second copy from
your original copy of the MD).

I'm not saying that it is impossible to find a prerecorded CD that has
SCMS on it.  But making one digital copy a CD to an MD is to the very best
of my knowledge, perfectly legal.

I have personally  been recording from prerecorded CDs (I have been making
digital MD copies since early 1993) and have, to date, never encountered a
SCMS encoded prerecorded music CD.

Just as an aside, I want to state for myself, and I know that I speak for
at least several other members of this list, the respect that I have for
you and your responses here.  You have to the best of my memory, never
used the list as a source of advertising.

When ever you have made reference to Core Sound, it has always been as a
means to provide a solution to an individual's problem.

The majority of your responses do not even mention Core Sound.  I greatly
admire and respect you for that.  I also wish to acknowledge the superior
knowledge that you bring to this list.

In many areas, especially live recording, I personally believe that you
are the most knowledgeable person on this list.  What's more, you impart
this knowledge without expecting anything in return.

If this list gave out rewards for unselfish, highly informative
contributors, you would certainly be one of the recipients.

Regards,
Larry
