Umm... how does this contradict anything that I said?

Is the 10 times normal playback speed throughput capacity of USB 1.1 not
"several times normal speed"?

Your point being?
| Not to mention if it has to encode data additionally...
An MD recorder's ATRAC circuit converts 16-bit linear PCM to ATRAC already,
by definition. Moving the ATRAC encoding out of the recorder seems stupid
to me. The only "extra" encoding that the host and USB device need to do
is wrapping PCM packets inside USB packets in a fashion similar to SCSI
over USB, which is computationally trivial.
| I guess the most viable way will be a special data unit, that has
| only to write already encoded data to the MD with no or little encoding.
Huh? This makes no sense to me.
