How about this as a solution? All telemarketers have to call from the same set of area codes. No matter where they are located geographically, they are assigned a number out of a special set of area codes. An answering machine or CallerID unit that had a list of all the area codes concerned could easily be programmed to hang up or tell them they just got their company fined...
I have been doing something similar...capturing using VirtualDub, encoding with TMPgenc, then authoring and burning in Nero. I burn to a CD-RW disc to make sure I have the menus set correctly, and to check the encoding params I am using. I was experimenting this way for a while with just one (1) hi-speed CD-RW disc, and after a while it started dropping bits. I tried doing a COMPLETE/FULL ERASE instead of the quick-erase, and the problem seems to have disappeared. Burning to 4x discs always seem to give me dropouts, no matter how I erase the disc beforehand.

How about this whistle I just dug out of a box of cereal? I don't need it for anything...
