That's not without exceptions.  There are pro-grade units such as the Sony
MDS-B5 that can copy ATRACked data bit-for-bit from one to another without
decoding or reencoding, with no generation loss and no concern about SCMS,
running at approximately 4x (8x for mono).

The MDS-W1 does the same, but as a consumer-level unit it has to comply
with SCMS, and it does so by deleting the original.
