Subject: Re: [H] Copy protected CDs
The 2 common methods of copy protection are an autorun which runs a DLL which refuses to allow the computer to rip the file, or a bad TOC on the outside edge of the Disk (Where an "updated" TOC would go on a Multiple session CD-R).
If it is CD3 version of copy protection:

The best discussion I have seen of how to work around copy protection in copying media that you have purchased is in the Maximum PC March, 2005 http://www.maximumpc.com/ issue.
