In Reply to: Its used in all Warner releases.... why wish for watermarks ? posted by SnaggS on January 29, 2003 at 15:59:55:
Warner's just chose to admit they use watermarking. For this reason, I am likely to avoid Warner releases. Now it just so happens Warner's has the only titles I'm mildly interested in so DVD-A adoption has been pushed back (perhaps indefinitely maybe until I opt for a DVD-V upgrade).
Some would scoff at this attitude concerning watermarking but it HAS be audible for it to work and this HAS to affect the music.I'd feel better about it (maybe) if Warners, Verance, and/or other users of Verance watermark technology would come out and categorically deny the watermark is "acoustically significant", explain why, and provide A/B comparison material for consumers to evaluate.
