=)

Now WHY would Emu distribute Akai-formatted CD's? =) Sort of like Ford 
putting GM engines in their cars.

They aren't formatted for Akai, they are Emu format. How are you informed 
that they are Akai format?

If they are Emu format, the Mac should be spitting them out, neither the 
Mac nor the Emagic convertor recognizes the format. Stupidly precise things 
these computers are...

If they are Emu format, you can convert them into EXS-24 format using a 
third party convertor - CDxtract www.cdxtract.com or Translator 
www.chickensys.com/translator
