The same can be said about Sony MiniDisc, seems to me that all Sony equiment has this protection or whatever they call it.

[gentoo-user] File system on Sony nw-e405
Hi, and Merry Christmas!Anyone with an idea what file system Sony has put on the mp3-player? They have their own proprietary transfer app - which is Windows only, naturally. My partner finally bought a mp3-player the other day, and now we are having problems with the CD on our Windows laptop. So I though I'd just move stuff from my disk to the mp3-thingie. Personally I won't buy a Sony thing after their total f-up with the DMR software. Regards,Martin S
