I agree that I have been hard on 'big floppy' packet formatting, but this is
largely coloured by experiences with InCD which frankly is a waste of hard
disc space. Direct CD I have had fewer problems with, other than
compatibility issues with hardware and operating systems. When it runs, it
does exactly what it says on the tin. If I had to employ such an application
then DCD would be the program of choice.

With such poor standardisation and having to jump through hoops to produce a
stable working environment, you have to wonder 'why bother', when there are
easier methods of putting data on discs? I no longer use CDRW discs for any
purpose other than testing ...
Packet formatting using these applications has become an answer
to a question I am not asking any more

(Have you heard of DLA, InstantWrite, WriteCD?)

When Mikey was shilling for Take Two, supposedly a backup software, as
the second coming, Mikey spewed that it MUST use supposedly fragile,
unreliable, flaky packet writing format, and that's for it to work
IDEALLY !!

For Take Two to work IDEALLY, your drive must support
packet writing and you must have DCD installed...to do it.
=======================

Moreover, the supposedly *inherently* flaky, fragile, faulty, unreliable
packet writing format was good enough for BACKUP -- even when combined
with the supposedly *inherently* flaky, fragile, forgetful, unreliable
CD-RW media !!

You may back up ...to a DCD-formatted erasable.
