Bob - I agree you should start discrete posts in the appropriate forums for your follow-on questions (like about Nero, in the Computer Recording forum). Not only will you receive better / more complete advice because more people will see them, but it will also make it easier for others to find answers to those same questions later.
That said, nearly -every- thread has inappropriate content, whether it's completely off-topic in a general sense, or off-topic and related specifically to a different question / issue / device / etc. It's a constant battle and I gave up attempted enforcement long ago. It's hard enough just keeping up with all the threads posted to the wrong forum - some by the same members, ad nauseum - much less those posted -within- threads. You're not alone, it's just that in this case someone actually attempted to enforce some structure to a TS thread. It's rare for someone to actually try to keep a thread on-topic, but I agree in principle it's a good idea.
Hmmmm...maybe I should delete this post...it's off-topic, too...
