There's also the point of fraud to be considered. By copy protecting a
disc, the record companies can no longer call it a Compact Disc (too many
errors). See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CDDA for some detail.

The sad part about this entire topic is the futility of attempting to copy
protect in the first place. So they install some software and Mac and
Win... then some Linux kiddie rips the CD and puts it on P2P and it's out
now for the whole world. All it takes is one person to break it and it's
all over. What a waste of resources trying to protect it.
