  1. Re:How can a CD track you? on Lawsuit Over Crippled Charley Pride Music Disks Settled · · Score: 2, Informative
    Depending on how you play it - if it comes with a custom program that opens on your computer, then that program could be sending info across the Net without you knowing it. (I'm not sure what the setup is, since I don't listen to Charley Pride)

    It's not an original idea - Windows Media Player does reports your playlists back to Microsoft secretly if you don't stop it. Download and run ZoneAlarm, fire up a CD with Media Player, and wait for the warning.
