It's not labelled with the "Compact Disc-Digital Audio" logo. Unfortunately, most consumers don't know what that logo implies and you can still call it a "CD," so they'll buy it without realizing.
To be fair, the packaging does have lots of notifications on it about its protected nature (e.g. the hinge portion of the jewel case holds the text "Copy Protected" or somesuch, and the back-cover fine print explains the ways the record company wants to allow you to liten to it). Amazon labels it as "[CONTENT/COPY-PROTECTED CD] [ENHANCED]."
That's why I didn't buy it at the store. I like the band a lot, but won't buy music that doesn't carry the "Compact Disc - Digital Audio" logo. My son downloaded it from ITMS, and we won't have any issues with our iPods.
It's more of a negotiation than a time-after-time rejection. If you read the docs, you'll find Amazon getting coached by the PTO staff as to how they cn form their claims to be accepted ("removing this claim, and re-phrasing that claim, will change this application to an allowable one").
