Thanks for pointing that out. They are welcome to use whatever business/IP model
they wish, but this one bothers me enough that I would avoid the device.
And what prevents them from "archiving" anything you send them?
I'll continue using the Catweasel and my various
other boxes to make images and hope that Philip gets the support software for DiscFerret
fleshed out in the near future.
My feelings exactly. I can't imagine any professional archive taking this group
seriously, and it is
completely opposite of CHM's policy of preserving and making available any information
on underlying
media formats that we find.
