Hello all

I have bought Eric Clapton "Me and Mr Johnson"
on Reprise Records (belongs to Warner Bros, I
think).

I find to my utter disgust that there are no CDA
tracks on it
(which would allow me to pick and choose which
tracks
I want to copy to play in the car etc)
but a player software and all the audio tracks
packed in one big file.

OK - it plays on my hifi system but
a) it automatically installs WB player software on
my PC and
b) it won't play in the car at all
(anyway I don't want to use the original CD in the
car;
so I shall have to illegally clone the whole
thing).

Anyway I reckon that when I buy a CD
I buy the rights to copy selections of the music
for my own use
- and I can't - using any of the usual legal
means.

This is taking copy protection to absurd and
user-unfriendly limits.
It's the last CD from Reprise Records I shall be
buying !

Best regards from Ray Russell
