While it is very unlikely to be the case with something as current as a DVD/CD drive, some older CD drives actually could not support CD-DA needed for ripping audio CDs (even without RIAA's involvement!) - I have a pair of drives from my old Pentium/90 MHz - one a 4x, the other a 6x CD drive, and neither yet had CD-DA. -- Mark L.
