I have followed the discussion between you and the DD. Your stance is not very 
convincing, and I can understand why the relevant DD refuse to work with you.

Yeah, that's your point of view. The DD certainly have a different one. If 
anyone is interested, some details pop up here:

True - but it certainly is important to get things straight. If someone has a

Again: cdrtools that Debian distributes works fine.
