Archer,
I am by no means an expert on audio equipment. I was repeating what I was
told by two different audio salesmen when I was shopping for DVD players.
Thank you for correcting my misconception.
However, it would seem to me that with the proliferation of CDR drives both
audio and computer based, it was a pretty poor decision by Sony not to
include that as a feature, just as I feel about the lack of digital output.
I was going to buy the Sony MXD-D3 until I looked at the specs and found
that it had only digital in.
Like I said, I have always (until recently) been biased towards Sony
equipment and have a Sony receiver on my desk across the room.
BTW, I agree 100% with your subject line.

Yeah right. You do know that it requires extra engineering to allow a DVD
deck to read CD-Rs? They are invisible to the typical DVD wavelength laser.
