I am all for copy protecting CD's so the punks that distributes their copies across the Internet are finally defeated.

Then you'll have to also banish the Line In function on all sound cards and make it illegal to own any system with a Line In audio function in conjunction with table-top or portable CD players.
News flash! It's not going to happen.
So, if you think that copy-protecting CDs will prevent people from making ANALOG-to-digital copies, you are so-o-o-o-o-orely mistaken.

Bring back LP's then it will take 28 minutes to copy than 30 seconds of MP3 crap.

If that's what you think, then you clearly have not been keeping up on various LP-to-CD or LP-to-MP3 software that has been available for
years. Copying a record, depending onthe speed of the system, can easily be a "just press Start" deal. Yes, it will take more time, but it's not necessarily any more difficult.

I am sure that there are folks on this forum that disagree with my disclosure but how would you feel if someone stole your equipment and said you had no intellectual property to the items you own.

Not necessarily at the disclosure itself, but I have a thing or two to say to you about the froth that you just spewed on my monitor. I'll need a degreaser to get this crap off my screen now.
Oh, yuck.
That is so gross. Does it HAVE to be green??? Can't you spew in fuchsia or peuce instead?
:p)
I know that there will be people who want to slam me for this, but the truth is that if you don't accept the reality that there will always be piracy (regardless of the ethics involved) and that most anti-piracy methods are useless and often more of a hinderance to the consumer, you're just setting yourself up for high blood pressure.
