New DVD-Audio music releases and talk about the latest players.

Oh, that's right...

Yep, I'm pretty sure that's the way it works in real life.

There they are in the mastering studio, getting ready to create the master for their new album. The band is there, the producer is there, and the mastering engineer there, all working hard to make the best product they can. The studio is equipped with a Pacific Microsonics Model Two A/D converter (which along with the Model One is the only way there is to make an HDCD disc).

They are debating which settings to use, and then someone shouts, "STOP! We have to check with the patent!"

So they go on-line and download the patent. They discuss it for a while and then agree, that even though there are menu options for turning "low level extension" on and off, and even though these options are explained in the manual, that they MUST NOT turn off "low level extension". After all, that's what it says in the patent.

Yep, I'm pretty sure that's the way it works in real life.
