That blows. There MUST be some software out there to get around this. 'Clone CD' or something like that...

try this 99.9999999999999999999999999% of the copy protection systems are worthless. They take little effort to get around. |

i stopped buying music after the local Sam Goody got a bad batch of Lil Wayne CDs that were all jacked up and unlistenable. I tried to take it back, and they gave me a bunch of hell. So I said screw this, and downloaded SoulSeek. I still buy music from artists who I love. But I "sample" music before I buy. If that's stealing, so be it. But never again will I go in and buy an album without knowing what's on it. There's just no point in doing that.

records companies can't admit they've already lost the battle...and, like good corporate giants, they won't admit it until they alienated most of the customers and lost billions...then they'll grudingly accept a new business model and make as much as they ever did...but they won't learn the lesson, and we'll go this all again for some dumb reason in 30-40 years...

End,
If you hold down the shift key while inserting and loading the VR CD, it bypasses the copy protection. And while I'm totally against illegal downloading, I think it's lame that it's so difficult burn a copy of a CD that you purchased. The problem is that there is no real answer at this time. FWIW, I didn't have to do anything with my G5. iTunes bypassed all the encryption but on the PC, I had to use the method described above. Dane |

Here is what I did. I have a Pioneer CD burner that I bought about 8 years ago. I tred the Velvet revolver CD(that I borrowed) and it did the same thing in my computer. So I got out the ol' Pioneer burner. I wired a CD player to the back of the burner and pushed play on the CD player and record on the burner and let it record. When it ws done, I had a copy of the album w/o the copyright protection. I put the burnt CD in my puter and ripped it. Worked great.

Reads the CD like normal and then writes a file like normal.... the skipping you were hearing is from the protection that actually places the music all over the physical CD... normal ripping programs get confused and cause the skippage... ah hell, i'm too tired to explain... i just know Cdex has never met a encryption scheme it can't break for me....

I don't buy popular music. The last CD i purchased was Revenge of the Sith. Before that? The 10-CD Autumn Thunder NFL films collection. Before that? The obscure, out of print soundtrack to King Solomon's Mines, by Jerry Goldsmith.
I have alot of older music (80s rock/metal mostly) but I downloaded it all.

Also, the only good music Velvet Revolver ever produced was when they were named Guns 'n Roses.

I used Exact Audio Copy to copy my Velvet Revolver CD.
http://www.exactaudiocopy.de/ The first time you put the disc in your computer it installed a program called MediaMax. So just holding down the "shift" key will not work in the future. Do a google search on Mediamax to see what it does to your computer and read all the lovely things people have to say about it. Very difficult to get rid of once it's on your computer. |
