All the same, you loose a lot of space when using packet writting software. With the size of a hard drive today I can't understand why you would be concerned about recording to the drive then transfering to CD. To buy a new drive taht is so small as to make this a problem would cost more then buying a 20GB drive with loads of space. ======= Kirk Wood Cpt.Kirk at 1tree.net Nothing is hard if you know the answer or are used to doing it.
