No, I cant copy directly, thats just ONE of the many things that doesn work (the only thing the drives WILL do is burn audio from the hd, and copy data from discs to HD, nothing else. No playing of CDs or DVDs, no burning of DVDs, no copying ect...) I dont think that there are many people the rip everything to their hd and then burn when it comes to trades, its just impractical IMO.
