the tendency of erasables (particularly HS) to forget

( BTW, have you ever communicated with Roxio and OSTA about what you
call the flakiness of fixed-length packet format?

Asking because you won't least a bit squeamish communicating with
Plextor and Andy McFadden, letting them know their errant ways --and
made that fact public. )
