Because Sony didn't want you to transfer MD's to PC when it made the
netMD's. They feared music piracy.
I got around this by using an optical digital output on a home deck which
feeds into an optical digital input on a PC sound card that ignores SCMS.
I
was transferring "cut" music from MD to PC for my daughter's dance
instructor. She's since moved everything to PC since the CD player
****tion
of her MD/CD deck died.
Sony obviously reversed this decision with the HiMD's, which made many
people who do "field recording" happy. The MZ-RH1 can even transfer
recordings made on old, "regular" MD's to PC via USB.
