Stuff like this often depends on the CD-ROM drive, it's best to try several models. I haven't found a CD yet that I couldn't copy.

If you still want to support the artists, visit their concerts and by the merchandizing products. -- What difference does it make to the dead, the orphans and the homeless, whether the mad destruction is wrought under the name of totalitarianism or the holy name of liberty or democracy?
