What's even more amazing is that the 'protection' appears to do nothing to make the copy harder to perform. Not one extra key press; nothing. Their protection forces users to copy the CD they paid for, just to be able to hear it, and doesn't even hinder them when they do.
I second VK's religous undertones.

Whilst I do not own many (I can only name one - the Dido 'CD') copy protected CD's, my Meridian kit does not have an issue with any of them.
