On that note, I use to rip CDs to my computer so that I could listen to them with out having the CD in the drive. I used a feature of Windows Media Player to disallow copying of the ripped CDs. I used the copy protect feature in case someone had temporary access to my PC. If the PC was stolen, the hard drive encryption would protect the copy from being used.
Thank you and have a Terrific day!
