So what you're saying Charlie is that the Pioneer won't properly handle sub-channel data for PS2 purposes in regards to writing them or reading PS2 using CloneCD????
ANSWER: Yes. This applies to CDs, of course. A03 is fine for CDRWin 3.8g if you're patching. PrimoDVD behaves like CloneCD too - but as I mentioned, no sub-channel handling on burning.

I assume you mean that the Pioneer DVD Burner is perfect for WRITING PS2 games, but not reading them to images using CloneCD???
ANSWER: It's writing that's the problem. It reads sub-channel so that it can properly play VCDs and digital sound.

I was planning on buying a Pioneer DVD Burner, that, in conjunction with my Pioneer DVD-Rom drive with CloneCD to create DVD Images of DVD based PS2 discs, as well as my Sony CR-X175E as a backup.
ANSWER: The hardware is a good combination, leaving CloneCD to the Sony CRX. You would need to use Nero 5.5.6.4 or PrimoDVD to make DVD copies (tutorials on ####://www.psxcopyworld.co.uk )

OK, just so that I am absolutely clear Charlie, the Pioneer A03 Burner ISN'T good for burning PS2 games (either CD or DVD based), is that what you're saying?

Which is the best burner for burning PS2 games then?

I do use PrimoDVD 2.0 to create global images of DVD Based PS2 games.
