Hey, Beerslinger?

Isn’t it spelled “Luddite?” Is a dictionary part of the technology that you eschew? And for that matter, wouldn’t you be more of a Neo-luddite?

Just curious.

Hi. I don’t understand anything any of you are talking about.

I’m a Ludite. Would any one like to see my loin cloth?

You could just have a friend with a mac rip and burn that bad boy. No DRM of that sort for the Mac.

Actually doesn’t look like this one is included…

So… You know that Sony is recalling all those discs right?

Not at this time, here’s the kicker, its protected by suncomm, and is slightly different.

Sony also issues copy-protected CDs using software from digital rights management company SunnComm. But those, which include releases by the Foo Fighters and the Dave Matthews Band, haven’t come under the same kind of attack.

Nice going.

What you can do, though, is get the disk replaced by Sony with the mp3s of the songs. All you have to do is contact them, the way to do which is online.
