I guess what Bryan is talking about is how digital stream is formed by various 
recording programs. If data are laid out differently (geometry-wise) on 
different media types then it *could* make difference to program, what with 
data rates and timings and likes.

Now, Bryan, you obviously know what you are talking about. Unfortunately, we 
common people don't. So how about *actually* throwing together the FAQ you 
have been promising for some time? One-pager at least, for starters?
