I recently read in zdnet DVD-Ram drive review that the Pioneer DVR-A03"is unable to write to the section of a DVD disc that holds a DVD movie's copyright, region encoding and encryption information. That means the drive may copy video, but the new disc won't have the key to unlock and play"

Is this an issue if you properly rip your DVD's removing protection before authoring DVD?

I want to buy this drive but I am concerned that it will produce DVD's that will not play on table top DVD players for the above mentioned reason.
