Hello again joerg

I can only say that I have not experienced any problems reading scratched discs. The BTC does this task a lot faster than my Ricoh based burner (5125A). I't might not be as fast as a 16X DVD-ROM drive but hey, it's a burner. Haven't tried any Audio protection schemes yet though. Maybe the latest firmware 043 have changed this - the test was after all based on the 039 firmware.

Cheers,
Peter
