Am I missing something here? Yes. Those CDs are damaged goods. They won't play on your computer. They also, usually, won't play on your CD player with digital outs. If the RIAA has anything to say about it DRM will be built in to all players with digital outs so that you will not get anything comprehensible out of the digital outs. But, as I said before, if you can hear it, you can copy/steal it, so these efforts are for naught. They just cost you more money for less product. Boycott all copy protected CDs and return any that you mistakenly buy (as is your right). That's the only way to deal with it. Jan
