There's a term that was used for it, but I can't remember it. Anyway, I think you might have luck if you use a CD ripping program that can get past this. If you don't want to go through all the trouble, you can simply download the albums online at FilesTube - Search for files on rapidshare and other download sites and use your CDs in the car or stereo.
Yeah I'll look into that anti-piracy thing, I'd be absolutely pissed if that record company thing is true though. I have a cap on my internet for how much I can download per month so thats the reason I bought the physical albums. If all else fails I'll just download them next month. Thanks for all your help though .
