Got an email from them today.

if you're referring to the DSP update via files you burn to a CD-R and play on a CD/DVD player connected via Optical1.

It just took a while for things to become official for the US market, but it's the same 'unauthorized' files that were distributed on the avs forums a while back. Not sure why there's such a long 1 month disconnect/delay with Onkyo USA.

let them deal with the problems so we get the good fix. Its one of the reasons why musicians onthe wy to stardom (or not) tour europe, they would rather be boo'd in europs first or praised there before coming to the u.s. for that leg of a tour. it gives the companies involved time to get everything right for the u.s. leg of the tour(or to screw it up)
