Len I have no way of testing this the way you make a copy of a CD to an MD
because I do not have a stand alone CD recorder. I am assuming that using a
computer does not apply, since you are not really copying music, but rather
files. Am I correct?
In other words, when we copy a CD to an MD or if you have the equipment, you are
making a copy. It is actually not 100% the same (CD to CD-obviously an MD
isn't). But when you copy a CD to a CD using a computer you are not just making
a copy, but a "clone". This is a "true" copy that will allow you to make a
copy from it even though it is not the mother CD.
