Hrrm. Seems that record companies have launched a new weapon in the fight against music piracy - uncopiable (and seemingly unplayable) CDs! (Note the splendid returns policy...)



I can see this idea being scrapped almost immediately (if it can't be 'fixed' with black marker pen) - it's getting to the point where most people won't want a CD they can't copy onto their iPod, MP3 player or computer...

Thanks to mikki_g for the link!

Couldn't you just plug a DVD player into your monitor? I'm sure that would be possible and relatively inexpensive these days...

True, I'm sure that's possible, but strangely enough I'd like to avoid it as I have a perfectly fine DVD player ALREADY IN MY PC!! It'd be like someone giving you a non-readable non-musical audio-CD and adding "well, you could always just read the book!" I'm beginning to rant now, sorry.
