    to defeat the protection..u only have to keep the shift key pressed and prevent auto run..

    its so basic...its not funny

    i was studying the media hype given to this Cd...and man..its egg on their face..

    1 guess..ex-RIAA/rejects

    Just a quick note for everybody who is concerned about all these CD's being copy protected; I have the perfect system. It's called Windows 3.11

    Just run CD player at the same time as sound recorder, and it will convert the audio tracks into .wav files. Then transfer those wav files to your main computer and convert them into MP3's or whatever format you like.

    You'd be surprised how fast a Pentium III PC boots up with Windows 3.11
