I believe if it is advertised as a CD then that is breaking the consumer
laws as it isn't a Red Book standard . I'm sure I've read somewhere that
Philips have tried , or succeeded , in getting this BMG stuff re-classified

Yes, that's true, and I've been aware of it for some time. I don't buy
copy protected discs as a rule (it's just a personal gripe). I check the
labelling pretty carefully. In fairness to BMG, this disc doesn't bear
the "Compact disc Digital Audio" logo on any of the paperwork, but the
crystal case has the logo embossed on it. BMG say this isn't their
crystal case, and that the disc my wife bought must have been
repackaged. Apparently some stores do that if the brittle plastic gets
damaged in transit.
