Special meaning for value of FF in Track Number in Close Track/Session
command was removed already in MMC-2. At the same time as the field in
question was extended to two bytes as DVD- permits for over 2000 zones.
Latter alone means that FF became ambiguous at least in DVD- context,
which is why special meaning was removed. So that formally speaking it's
Ricoh which doesn't follow standard, as expecting MMC-3 unit to treat FF
specially is not exactly appropriate. Vendors are free to treat FF
specially in CD-R[W] context, for backward compatibility with old *CD*
recording software, but formally you can't *count* on that. A.
