You are correct but I was pointing out the "possibility" that when
one is making multiple records/edits of material digitally, then they
*may* run into SCSM issues whether they made the original recording or not.

They are not ... but when was it specified we are talking about 
prerec MD's or CD's ??  We are talking about re-recording digitally,
previous recorded material.  (see the first post).

SCMS is something to be concerned about when making multiple transfers,
I've encountered the problem when editing DAT tapes.  DAT -> CDR -> MD
is sometimes a "no go" due to SCMS ... I thought it irresponsible NOT
to mention the "possibility" of running into SCSM problems.
