Hi guys,
Thats true Ralph but what MD definitely does *not* need is
peeps being introduced to units like the Sharp 701/702
which will go pants due to utoc errors in 12 months time.
Add to that the allegedly buggy Sharp ATRAC coding prob
(even in the latest units) and the little extra you pay for Sony
stuff begins to make sense. C'mon guys-- Sony can throw
many times the budget and staff at improving and checking
their ATRAC algorithm than Sharp. It does surprise me that
there could be a flaw as major as incorrectly coding the MSB
in Sharps code, and that it wasn't corrected immediately but
perhaps they're all incompetent :-)
Cheers,
