Linux!!!

It's only mdma2, it doesn't support packet-writing (they just dropped
elementary functions in firmware every cheap CD-burner has) and their newer
firmware only allows PIONEER DVD-R/W at double-speed. Others are limited to
single-speed and you can't downgrade the firmware if you have flashed 1.8x!

A lot of people have crashed spinning-devices - no money from PIONEER after
guarantee is over!

I think 489,- EURO was very expensive for that BUG!

The A04 is nothing new, but only a bugfix-release!
