Obviously Winamp can't play without the source. I think this person 
thought he could rip the cd through winamp by simply copying as he 
would from any data disk. I think it's just a case of not quite 
comprehending the difference. Must be a beginner thing. I hate to 
admit it, but I'm sure I've come to a few of these erroneous 
conclusions myself especially in my novice years, but pride will not 
let me publicly recall them all <g>.
