Actually I know very little about the problem, but I just wanted to
point out that just because you can record it without problems once
does not mean your unit has no problem with it. Since ATRAC windows
the audio stream, there are 512 possible different encodings (if you
will) for the same segment of music (even with a digital connection).
So far, at least one other person has recreated this problem. See:
