Given normal CD error rates, I can't see how the pressing technology would make any difference--bits are bits, as long as the error rate is small enough to be correctable. On the other hand, mastering process, and the care taken during mastering, certainly can make a big difference (and I've certainly heard examples of indifferently or even incompetenly mastered CDs that could have been vastly improved). -- Dan Riley Internet: dsr@lns598.lns.cornell.edu Wilson Lab, Cornell University HEPNET/SPAN: lns598::dsr (44630::dsr) "Distance means nothing/To me." -Kate Bush
