I haven't been using my MD for a year or so. I recently decided to record alot of CDs to MD I have purchased over the last year or so. However a few of the CDs from EMI have this 'Copy Control' protection on them which prevents me from making a digital copy.
I use my DVD's optical out to record digitalcopys to MD. When I try to record these 'copy controlled' discs, everything seems to work OK. However when the TOC writes at the end of the recording session, the disc suddenly has over 250 track marks and the music is gone. So I've bought all of this music and can never listen to it on my MD????? Sure I can make an analog copy, but that really doesn't cut it for me!!!!
Does anyone know how to make a digital MD copy of one of these discs?
If I bought a NetMD, would it then be possible to make digital copys? ie does the Sony software allow this?
Does this mean I may as well abandon the MD format and revert to a shitty portable CD player? Sure I could just not buy EMI CDs like I've heard some people have pledged to do, but if I want to list to some of my favourite artists CDs I wanna listen to them!!!
