Most of music I listen to is Classical.
As about 10-12% of copy protected discs will contain the Windows mediashite format.
This accounts for a big data loss.
Take Gustav Mahler's Ninth or Beethoven's Ninth symphonies which are both long pieces.
It appear's that on a copy-protected disc. This music will not fit on one disc.
I've told all my friend's to boycott these discs.
This case reminds me of the SCMS protection on Dat machines a few years back.
It won't be long before the protection is broken. And the code/algorithm is post on the web.
Happy listening.

Modern Pop Sucks. Pro Tools doesn't suck.
Just over use of plugin's, production ideas and lack of creativity.
My 2 Euro cents worth.
