I store most of my shows in SHN format to avoid DAE. If we?re trading, you can count on me to use Taiyo Yuden (most likely, they?re the only brand Plextor recommends; they invented CD-R) or Mitsui and a first class bubble mailer. My Hardware: PIII/500, 128MB RAM, IDE HDD, SCSI CDROM (Plextor 40X), SCSI CDR (Plextor 8X) Software: Mandrake Linux 8.1, cd paranoia 9.8, cdrecord 1.10
