Anyway, I did a little search, and there are MP3's of that album, including track 15. I didn't download and listen (that would be illegal after all) so I don't know about the audio quality, maybe they were ripped through an analog cable. At any rate, don't give up yet (and if you can't get it to work, return the CD as defective if there wasn't a big fat sticker on it saying that it's not a CDDA, copyprotected and won't play in a computer).
