I wasn't trying to re-define the word Ripping, mearly trying to point out that Ripping means different things in different contexts and that "20x Ripping speed" on a marketing sheet for some drive doesn't mean you'll get 20x ripping in EAC Secure Mode. Many software rippers use method's similar to EAC's Burt mode and this is why it makes sense to do your homework on ripping software. Its typically recommended not to use C2 Correction with Secure Mode since C2 doesn't always give accurate results. How big of a deal this is in the real world is up for debate. Certainly Plextor is known for very good C2 correction. ss. -- street_samurai ------------------------------------------------------------------------ street_samurai's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=199 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=18206 _______________________________________________ ripping mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/ripping
