> How many machines have you all used with a CD Player that had "Save Track As..." built in as a standard option. The CD Player in BeOS could save all or parts of CD Tracks. Also, BeOS would show CDs as a directory of numbered AIFF or WAV files, I can't remember which. There was also some optional software that wold look up the CD info up with CDDB and would show the track names in the Tracker (the BeOS file manager) | |||||||||||||||||||||||

Ok, how about the same with a DAT drive? If you connect an SGI DAT drive to an IRIX machine, you can save the tracks in the same way. And they get saved in the faster, native DAT sample rate. 48Khz, I believe. | |||||||||||||||||||||||

Yes! Be had it. A friend and I setup a Be station in the late 90's and really liked it. Nice catch. |
