You sure about that?

I know there's some differences in the standards for subcode data
(eg between AES/SBU and SP/DIF) but I'm fairly sure neither can carry
track names.

As I understand it, CD-TEXT info is stored in the lead-in data (or is
it lead-out) on the CD and can't be transfered via SP/DIF...

Or to look at it another way, why would Sony sell a special
cable to transfer track names ("Joint Text" or whatever they
call it) if the data could be simply transferred via SP/DIF?
