How do I copy control CD'S?

I want to copy control my cds because when I put my vinyls on cds [to listen to in the car] sometimes people ask to borrow them cds. The music is usually hard to find and I dont want them copying my discs.. so are there any softwares out there to make my cds uncopyable? Like Andy P was talking about with the CD that wouldnt play in his discman...

It's not possible without expensive equipment.

Shit, no software to do it no?

You cant, any copy protection is a wast of time, as its easly gotten around.

The stuff to copy protect a CD does cost a bomb and I dont think there is a program around that has a feature like what you want built in.

Just dont lend the buggers your CD's Smile

From what i've heard most of can be circumvented one way or another.

So there is no way at all? even a shitty way of doing it... cause the people i lend to dont really know much computer related stuff and they probably just about know how to copy a CD in the first place..

If there were any software out there then id love it...

Even if I could password protect the CD's or something and only allow them to be played instead of copied...

why bother, just play the cd....why are you concerned with ripping it steven?

Im concerned that when I lend the cds i make from vinyl to friends that they are copying them... And I have to rip my vinyls and put them to CD because I love to listen to the tracks in my car...

Unless someone knows a turntable with anti-shock? hahah Very Happy
