Guest Low Roller Posted February 16, 2006 Report Share Posted February 16, 2006 How would one copy a copyrighted CD-ROM if one was so inclined? Nero won't do it because of the copyrighted thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CyberHippie Posted February 16, 2006 Report Share Posted February 16, 2006 hmmm I've never come across that before. You could try CDRWIN. Maybe make an image of the disc before copying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AD Posted February 16, 2006 Report Share Posted February 16, 2006 i heard that if you press the control key while inserting the CD the copy protection is rendered impotent. but that may just be for audio cdsAD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattm Posted February 16, 2006 Report Share Posted February 16, 2006 One might try a program called Easy CDDA Extractor which might just have the capabilities to do such a thing (works for me, shhhhhhh). So far the only CD I've come across like that was the new Green Day a buddy of mine wanted mp3'd for his iPod.If one was so inclined, one might also visit astalavista.box.sk where he/she might stumble upon a crack for said program (although he/she would need an older version of the program as the cracks seem to come out a couple months after a version change).msg me if you need or want a hand. always remember that if you like a program, pay for it but so far as I'm concerned you should be allowed to preview it for free. I think the limitations on the free version are 5 songs per cd and I think it picks them randomly.PS: This program kicks ass. It will rip anything I've tried so far and it will also do conversions. It's linked to freeddb so you don't have to worry about ID3 tags. You might need to get the Lame mp3 Encoder but I think it comes with it. Pretty much everyone I know that likes to backup their cd's (say for an ipod) uses this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CyberHippie Posted February 16, 2006 Report Share Posted February 16, 2006 If it's for a protected audio cd, it seems to me that the audiofile burning software "Feurio" ignores any protections... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Low Roller Posted February 16, 2006 Report Share Posted February 16, 2006 Nope, not an audio CD. I'm talking hardcore software piracy... theoretically.Thanks for all the suggestions. I'll try them out tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
larry_llama Posted February 16, 2006 Report Share Posted February 16, 2006 theoretically you would probably have to search google for the software title and see what kind of copy protection scheme is used (there are many of them) and then search google for bypass instructions...
