Surprise, surprise, Garrett's security unlock also does away with the lockout on home burned CDs! Maybe everyone else knew this, but it was a shock when I stuck an, ahem, backup CD in to play and the AVIC started ripping it! Hadn't seen that mentioned.

Great! This means I can save Internet radio recordings to the Z and not have to bother with the CDs or the Zune.

There never was a lockout on home burned cd's...

As long as you burn the CD's in standard audio format, the Z will rip it...

jwg is correct. I don't have anything to do with cd ripping

Yep, Garrett, had nothing to do with it ripping CD-Rs because of the "Serial Copy Management System" which prevents tranferring second-generation copies..... manual, page 112.

And boy, am I glad he had nothing to do with it!!!!

Haven't gotten Garrett's drive YET. Was always able to rip burnt CDs. You are probably just used a different brand of CD-R or burnt it a different way

If you copied them with a PC, you don't have to worry about SCMS. If you copied them with an audio-only CD copier, then you DO have problems with SCMS.

I didn't know anyone still used those, I remember them from the late 90's, but I thought everybody used their computer to copy CDs these days.

Yep, PC.

See what happens when you read manuals!
