Mmm, prolly the newest way to get people to stop spreading music on the web is my first guess...

Try shutting down the AutoPlay on your CD drive there may be some sort of copy protection scheme at work here...

isn't there some thing where you hold down Shift and it turns off the protection or something?

thats been around quite a while, where the music on-disk isnt represented by .cda files. use a program that doesnt require opening the files up via the cd directory like WMP (i assume you've been trying to winamp). also you can still rip them to your HDD with exact audio copy or whatever, make mp3s out of them, and just listen off your hard drive. thats what i do.

Wrong thread. C'est la vie.

Anyway, : caesar1996 : Possibly; what that does is turn off the autostart (this actualy work to stop startup apps, and speed up rebooting too). That may do the trick, but never had a CD that did this.

Another thing that couldbe done is that if you rip the cd to wavs, you could re-burn the cd without the protection. This is where things get legaly fuzzy, so I'm stopping here. ^.^

bah.

i know how you feel. i got a cd that had the same problem and ended up downloading the songs instead.

just return it and make them give you your money back.
