Yes, hence my reference back to the original subject. As a frequent
poster, you know some of us are quite specific in what we are talking
about :-) But you are right in what you wrote of course!

Question is: do we want that? For the consumer-market i would say,
yes, but I doubt the professional market would want that. Production
insurance companies for instance, don't like hard-disk masters, so
demand you make backups on LTO3-tapes, because it has proven to be
more reliable (and have better error correction).
