->       Thanks for the info.  Sounds like I'll need a DAT or a decent
-> as that $2000 Pioneer unit and a DAT might be more useful as
-> you can record over them.
At this years Comdex, Philips showed a RE-writable CD-R (different blank 
media,
needless to say) that they claim will be shipping 2nd Q of '97.....
->       I don't know about PC drives, but I think Pioneer's CD-R allows
-> you to add tracks until you finalize the TOC on the disc (it
-> uses a temporary one until that point)  Of course, you still
-> can only write once and only mark a bad track as one not to
-> read in the TOC if you make a mistake.
I'm sure there is PC software that will accomodate this as well (CDR462 comes
to mind), but I choose just to do all my "recording", non-destructive edits,
etc., on the HD, and when satisfied - burn. 650mb of HD realty is much more
affordable today!
