Nonsense! "Yes, Jon, perhaps one can make a player of a slightly reduced quality that can play any music." Please, don't distort what I have said. I said that there would be slightly reduced quality only if it were necessary to encode from analog. The only case where that would be necessary would be if the device playing the music is a sealed device that doesn't permit access to the music in unencoded digital form. "If you're gonna be playing the music of contracted artists, you're gonna need some sanction-type approval from the Big Five in the music industry. " Why ever is that? The music industry, of course, would like to bamboozle you into believing this. They tried for years to stop analog recording, with ultimately no legal standing. They won't succeed any more with digital audio than they did with analog. "Oh yeah, one other question (here we go again--LOL!): Do you have relations with anyone who works for, or have you ever worked for MP3 which is located in San Diego?" My, we HAVE been down this road before, haven't we?! No. FWIW, I can now mention that while you had me working for a competitor of Zulu, I was working at Callaway Golf. You couldn't have been further from the truth! LOL!
