Thank you for the report.

Now, how do *you* feel about this new (or any similiar) copy protection scheme?

(Soliciting your opinion).

I will never knowingly purchase a DRM-inhibited music cd. I'm not even sure if such a crippled disc qualifies as "red book". I doubt it.

If I ever wind-up with an *unmarked* crippled disc (any scheme), and the clerk won't give me my money back when I return it to the store, I shall have to punch him right in the nose.

YOu can tell if an artist is in the biz by the way he/she sells their CD's. if their is a copy protection scheme then those asses are in it for the money. Copy protection should be banned because it violates my rights as a consumer. If, by a miracle, I buy a CD with some sort of copy protection, and i can't return it, then the store that sold it to me will go up in flames.

I agree.

I view unmarked copy-protected discs as a form of consumer fraud.

We'll have to see what happens......
