Summary: One manufacturer bucks copy protection I heard that Marantz showed a DAT mahcine at the Chicago CES that DID NOT include copy protection. I saw an interview tape on "Boresight News" on satellite TV with a person claiming to be a Marantz rep. He said the CP idea was dumb. He said they weren't worried because the technical quality of the CP'ed CD is going to be so poor that who'd want to tape them any way? Also, you can get information on where to write nasty letters to expressing your opinion. Call 1-800-282-TAPE. This is apparently a nonprofit group that calls itself "The Consumer Recording Rights Coalition". I'd bet that it does have some financial backing from equipment makers, though. Bill
