my guess is that if sony is smart enough to make the usb connector to x-fer
files directly from the computer they will make it work with all the codec's
on your computer to encode before it copys the files over, kinda like thier
music stick stuff works now. i doubt (or at least hope that they dont do
the following) just give you a coded so you have to re-enocde them all of
your files. but this is all speculation. anyway what i'm waiting for is
when they come out with the replacement for my car unit the 800rec that has
netmd on it so i can have my laptop sitting there pop the cd into it, plug
the usb cord into my head unit, and copy from my laptop while i'm
driving..........can anyone say accident. hehe i have enough trouble when i
have to edit md's now with the 800 while i'm driving.
