I read that earlier. Have you tested it out or did you just read that your drive wouldn't work the the copy protection on this particular CD?

I read that my specific model, which is a Dell OEM (since I own a Dimension 4100 and have that specific DVD drive), ran through the tests. I'll test it this week

I have a Pioneer combo drive in my ripping machine (which is a Mac) - it reads DVDs, reads & writes CDs. I imagine it will work too, but then again, I'm not really interested in those songs, and if I return the CD, that would be stealing music, and I don't care too much for doing that (good music is worth paying for).

That's what has been holding me back.

I actually don't like the soundtrack and can find better uses for $20.

However, if I want to rip CD's in the future that I own, then I will do so knowing that Cactus Data Shield will not work on my drive.

I also do buy CD's in mass quantities enough that I feel that I should be able to rip the music to listen to in a more portable format. It's not like I'm going to put them up on Morpheus, kazaa, or Grokster (which I refuse to touch).

Speaking of which, time to get back to listening to the new Outkast, Cypress Hill, Beatles, and Pink Floyd CD's I got. Stoned
Raiders is one of the best albums of the year.

I like ripping mp3s because, honestly, I make copies of most of my CDs. I make them out of high-quality mp3s that I rip on my Mac. Eventually, I'll get an iPod, and that'll be my portable music choice. But for now, I really don't want to have to tote my CDs from work to home to Jenni's car, and I don't want to risk losing CDs that I paid $15 for. I'd rather lose a 29 cent CDR that I can just re-burn.

I haven't touched file sharing programs in over a year. I'm just not that interested in them anymore. Previous to that, all my mp3s were ripped by myself and friends (back in the modem days) or downloaded via TCSE. Anyone remember that?
