My impression is that .wav doesn't support SCMS, so information on the SCMS
status of the input is simply lost. If you later copy the audio in a .wav
file to MD, CD, or DAT, the software for converting from .wav to that format
has to figure out how to set the SCMS bits. [Polite corrections will be ap-
preciated.]

Well, they aren't going to give away copies from the new SCMS-penultimate
printing that they can still sell, are they? They're going to give away the
SCMS-final copies that they have to withdraw from the market. As Cole Porter
put it, "Never give anything away that you can sell."
