I ripped the disc with a Plextor 712a :-) I kind of assumed it was an error correction problem. I couldn't be bothered with trying to get it to work with the DRM malware, so I just returned it and exchanged it for a disc without copy protection. Having a disc that will only play through a CD player sort of defeats the whole purpose of SS/SB for me. Now if only I could find somewhere to complain about it to EMI, because it looks like they have not only canned their forums, but any kind of published emails as well. Anyone no where to voice complaints about this crippleware? -m -- greedy_grendel ------------------------------------------------------------------------ greedy_grendel's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=452 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=18297 _______________________________________________ ripping mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/ripping
