Music is good but the CD is not a CD it is Copy Controlled

"The Music is great, good cover of Running Up that hill originally by Kate Bush. Deceiver of fools is also a great track, with a great gothic essence.



What I hate though is that Amazon doesn't mention that this is a copy Controlled Disc. What this means is errors are deliberately introduced to the disk that most stereos can compensate for but Computers Can't.



They have tweaks to make it work on windows, but if you Run Mac or Linux which I will soon, you are dead in the water with clicky music.



Copy control discs also run a greater risk of damage through scratches, as while the CD player compensates for the existing damage a scratch can become the straw that breaks the camels back rendering a CD unplayable. I usually steer away from Copy Controlled Discs as I don't like to buy a faulty product. Some car stereo's also don't play them well.



Message for Amazon, Let us know when they are Copy Controlled so we can exercise our right for choice."
