Well, that's a relief; I was getting concerned because the cd's didn't mention copy protection and didn't want to keep purchasing cd's if I could not use them.

Actually both of the Ozzy CD's I just purchased (Blizzard of Ozz and Diary of a Madman) did not copy to the HSX (I tried more than once). I put them in it reads and then spits out. I can copy to Real One and play but when I used emplode to copy to the HSX I did get an error on each track. Maybe I tried copying to much at the same time?

But you're right, I probably went ahead and jumped to a premature conclusion without checking into it further. BUT I did rip about ten other brand new cd's at the same time and did not have any trouble until I tried the Ozzy ones.

I will try again tonight.

I don't know anything about copy protection just an observation.
