Well, to the technical side of the copy-protection rant:

How do you rip the CD's - to be able to play the music you bought on your riocar...!?

So far I had two CDs, on which rebuilding the TOC manually did NOT do the trick.
They still produced ASPI errors (preventing Audiograbber from reading the CD at all) or even short pauses in the middle of tracks (after ripping with EAC's 'secure mode', and waiting an hour or so for just one CD)...

The only way I managed to grab the Audio was to use EAC and switch off all security modes. I read the CDs two times and compared the checksums, to be sure everything is ok.
That way I still had perfect rips...but how long is that going to work ??

on the other hand...I guess sharing our knowledge here will take us directly into jail...so in a year or two, prisons are filled with MUSIC LOVERS
