No software sollutions yet, but you can connect your stereo to your PC and rip it on your HDD.

no, i won't. i can't get the article that i read that. doing this you'll skip the protection track search on google for an accurate instruction

I've read about that too... You should also email the label and tell them that you feel your consumer rights have been violated because you have legally bought the media and the proper player but can't play it. Not that they'll give a shit, but many emails can do wonders.

infact the best solution is to don't buy protected cd, then they may realise

yes, but how can you tell which one is protected
i got aileron by rotor+, and its not working if i put it into cd-rom
doesn't have any audio files on it, only 2 videos-and the music from these two videos is not the same music to one that is played in normal cd player

I was to understand that on the CD half way thru the tracks a clear mirror of a 4mm thick line would be there, now I'm told if you colour that in with a marker it will work in a PC but I've not tried this yet so I dunno.

Ok, I have a Scooter single with Copy protection on, I can't play it on my PC. The deal is I colour the line in with a marker and if it works i'll tell you tonight.
And if it dont and fucks my CD i'll cry. :)

Dude, If you want me to try it then insult my personal taste maybe I won't.
I've been into Scooter since 1994 so I hold a place in my heart for them, I have loads upon loads of CD's by them and wasting a £7 import is not my bag.

HP is a fucking wonder. The guy has such style and he developed everything he has from nothing. Rick the enginear is also amazing with music.
OK, Logical song? not that good but Dancing in the moonlight? wow!! She said? again, wonderful. You cant judge them on singles.
I'll try it for you but diss Scooter and you diss me. };)

thats it, tape it. then take it back to the shop, tell them you listen to your music on your home computer entertainment system and it will NOT work.
money back and buy something else

I read this article on what to do. Supposedly just look to see where the tracks are written on the disc, and just black-out everything after that. Or you could just do a search on Google or something for "Copyright Protected Cd's" or something...

replacing iosubsys.dll also does solve the problem (it did it for druqks) though this caused other problems.
i changed back after ripping, i found it somewhere at gamecopyworld

I got a marker and carefully coloured in that silver line half way down the track space that runs around the CD. I put it in my old drive and nothing happened, put it in my writer (much newer drive) and it worked fine. I’m going to rip the CD and pirate it loads now. Well not really but this does seem to work anyway.

It does really work, but only on one type of copy protection - there are 2 or 3 different kinds in common use.
