An It Harm None, Do What You Will
I do connect the analogue audio, but I've never needed to use it as I haven't had any trouble with digital extraction.
There isn't a bargepole long enough for me to work on [a Sony Viao] - clocker 2008
It's connected... but I don't know why.....
I used to before I got XP, no point now.

No, I don't.
At first I didn't know you were supposed to, but since I've never had any problems I don't see any point in starting now.

XP doesn't use the analogue channel, so there's no need to connect it.

Yup.

Only turned on my first PC two years ago.

I don’t because I find the CD-ROM adds to much noise (through the sound card).
Anyways, Anyone here ever tried digital out. I have yet to see one connect like that.
I've never even seen a sound card with a connector for the digital out, or a cable to use it for that matter.Originally posted by Ariel_001@22 July 2004 - 13:41

it is not connected in my main PC. but i use my second one for game emulators and i finally found a reason to connect the analogue cable in that one: Magic Engine requires it in order to play the CDDA in PC Engine CD-Rom games. dunno why. it just does. (yes, according to both the emu's author and my own fiddling around with it... i'm not drunk or anything. )
WinXP can use the analogue connection from a CD-Rom. it's just unnecessary with like 99.99999% of modern Windows programs.
