if there is copy-protection, take a felt-tipped mark and draw a circle on the outer most track of the CD. I learn a lot living in the gamers hall.

I read that in some posts way back. Is it true? I guess it doesn't affect me because i have a special program that defies copy protection, but it's still an ingriguing idea.
Don't ask questions, just accept it.

So if you try to burn one of those it won't work? I've never come across that before.

never heard that, have to ask a geeky buddy of mine about it.
"When looking up there, I just felt whole, like I belonged. Like one day I too would shine my most brilliant. Sitting there also made me think about sitting through services at my little country church back home. About that never-changing congregation of the same sixty-seven people and everyone has known you since before you were born. Now, out here in the real world, everything just seemed more vivid than when I used to sit in that little pew. That pew that was now so, so far away from where I was. I feared I had somehow left God behind there, too. I feared he was somehow just sitting there, saving my seat on the fifth pew from the front row, just waiting on me to come back. I left so quickly, I worried that he may not have noticed I was gone. And, now, I’m just too far away to find. So he’s just sitting there, patiently waiting on me to come back. I closed my eyes and prayed a moment. I hoped more than anything that he could still hear me." -an excerpt from my novella, A Sea of Fallen Leaves.

Goodbye you liar,
Well you sipped from the cup but you don't own up to anything
Then you think you will inspire
Take apart your head
(and I wish I could inspire)
Take apart your demons, then you add it to the list.

I don't often copy official cds (only a few times when creating mix cds) but couldn't you just rip the cd to wav files on your computer and then burn them to a cd-r? Or do copy-protected cds guard against ripping as well?

Brutus is an honorable man
It's just coincidence that oil men will wage war in an oil rich land
And this one goes out to my man taking cover in the trenches with a gun in his hand
Then gets home and no one flinches when he can't feed his fam...

But Brutus is an honorable man...
