Hello Nic,
Have you tried the CD ripper that comes with dBpoweramp?
Your post has prompted me to try ripping the only Copy Controlled CD that I have, which is Scooby Snacks: the collection, by the Fun Lovin' Criminals.
When I put the CD in my laptop, a window popped up saying that files needed to be installed to read the CD. I clicked no. I manually loaded dBpoweramp CD ripper and all the tracks from the CD loaded fine. Im ripping in secure mode as I type this.
The first track took 6 ultra secure passes and had to re rip 54 frames. It came up as an Insecure rip, but the resulting flacs sound good to me. Im also listening to the first two tracks whilst I type this.
In my haste I did not look at how scratched the CD was before I ripped it. So I dont know if the 6 passes and re ripped frames is due to Copy Control or scratches!!
But at least its ripping!!
Best regards
Frank
