I've also read there are ways around the copy protection, but that stuff I'm not sure about. Title: Re: Amazon.co.uk have Chinese Democracy cd Copy-Protected.Will it work on my ipod?

I live in South Korea, so it will take around a week for my copy to be delivered. I was hoping a friend could rip his copy and send it to me it so I could at least hear it on release day. That's my master plan out the window... If I am lucky, it may arrive before the end of November.... And no, I am not buying the download... My copy of Angel down is on its last use thanks to emergency reformats causing itunes to think I have a new PC, and of course it then proceeds to put the tunes on my 'new' ipod! Bastards!

At the risk of sounding unpopular, I have NO qualms about using a torrent download if I cannot get past CD copy protection. It sucks that I don't get complete control over the actual format it ends up in, unless I download in FLAC etc., but I'm not buying the CD and then buying it on iTunes. Having said that, I've purchased plenty of copy-protected CDs and never had an issue with ripping any of them.

Post by: Eazy E on October 25, 2008, 05:43:12 PM Contraband had some sort of copy-protection that garbled the sound if you loaded it on iTunes... but there was a simple way of avoiding the copy protetction. If you give it a few weeks, I'm sure the computer geeks will post a way around it all!
I agree with Howard, if I buy the CD... I wouldn't hestitate to download the torrent if it doesn't work on iTunes.

As I said, so far I haven't had a copy protected CD that I couldn't copy. But hey, given the choice of some retard label trying to rootkit my machine or me downloading a torrent, easy choice.

Post by: nekomex on October 26, 2008, 12:15:01 AM the copy protection its a stupidity, it always affects the users that normaly do buy the cds, and the copys keep coming, they do not stop anyone who really wants to make ilegal copys.

Having said that, I've purchased plenty of copy-protected CDs and never had an issue with ripping any of them. yeah me too......thats why i said it was just a standard one. i have many cd's that say copy protected and i have always managed to back them up and make copys for the car or rip them for my mobile etc. if im unable to make a back up as normal there are definately ways and means. the easiest way is to rip from the sound card and not from the disc.

That's true, and that's the reason why I don't get these protections. But hey, I have a bunch of copy protected cd's and I've always managed to get them on my iPod with no problems.

Post by: Nightrain 87 on October 26, 2008, 07:13:24 AM I've never really had any problems copying a cd to my itunes thus far. If the vinyl copies come with a digital then I still won't have any problems haha ;D
Title: Re: Amazon.co.uk have Chinese Democracy cd Copy-Protected.Will it work on my ip Post by: St_Jimmyuk on October 26, 2008, 07:15:47 AM surely it would be market suicide to start releasing cd's that cannot be put onto mp3 players? especially with the way music is going at the moment anyway.
