Hi, fellow CD.-copiers, it seems SONY made the next step. According to german and austrian sources they make the small gap invisible since january. I just read that informing about methods to crack a copy protection is forbidden by law in the US. So DON´T read http://www.heise.de/newsticker/data/ghi-24.05.02-000/ (it´s in german anyway) As citizens of the still free countries in europe, we will keep our american friends informed ;-) But don´t forget to delete our mails after reading... Yours, Tobias
