The dual disc that I bought does not have the Sony DRM rootkit. It plays fine on my computer with no problem. So not all of these dual discs have the Sony malware on them.
The UPC is 827969498927 for reference.

As far as the music on "Get Right with the Man",it's what I call country with an attitude. And that's in a good way!
Current country is basically assembly-line, canned, commercial drivel devoid of any soulful attachment to the music for the most part. Whatever sells....
You won't find that in Van Zant's country songs. They have a message and a strong soulful connection to the Van Zant brothers.
I don't hear their music on the radio much, but it deserves more airtime.

There isn't a weak song on this disc. If I have to pick a favorite it would probably be "Been There Done That."
This is definitely a 5 star cd any way that I look at it. Quality recording, great Van Zant vocals and country music with a common man's message. It's excellent country music and the musicians that played on it were excellent.

CD SECRETLY INSTALLS DRM MANAGEMENT SOFTWARE WITHOUT PERMISS
Phillip Roncoroni | Manhattan, New York | 11/01/2005
(1 out of 5 stars)

"This CD secretly installs DRM (digital rights management) software on your PC without your permission. Not only does it do this, but the software then hides itself by installing as a "root kit."



As per WikiPedia,

Root kit

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

A root kit is a set of tools used by an intruder after cracking a computer system. These tools can help the attacker maintain his or her access to the system and use it for malicious purposes. Root kits are known to exist for a variety of operating systems such as Linux, Solaris and versions of Microsoft Windows.



A rootkit typically hides logins, processes, files, and logs and may include software to intercept data from terminals, network connections, and the keyboard. In many sources, rootkits are counted as trojan horses.

--



In this instance, Sony installs DRM software to copy protect their CD, and prevent it from being copied to various devices, all the while not telling you, the user, or letting you uninstall it because it hides itself from the user and Windows. Manually trying to uninstall it like some people have done, results in their CD-Rom drives disappearing entirely from Windows, as Sony installs their own custom CD-Rom drivers onto the system.



DO NOT SUPPORT THIS WRECKLESS KIND OF COPY PROTECTION. SHOW THE MUSIC BUSINESS THIS IS *YOUR* MUSIC. *YOU* PURCHASED IT, AND THEY SHOULD *NOT* BE ABLE TO DICTATE HOW YOU CAN USE IT.



Do not buy this CD."
BEWARE - COPY PROTECTION CONTAINS TROJAN THAT COULD CRIPPLE

"From CNET.COM:



"the software uses a sophisticated cloaking technique that involves a "rootkit"--something not dangerous in itself, but a tool often used by virus writers to hide all traces of their work on a computer."

"In the case of the SonyBMG software, trying to remove the software manually could shut off access to the computer's CD player [permanantly], researchers said."



BEWARE!!!!!!!
