OK, I am confused. You say
"On some windows xp PC's you might have to disable autorun to prevent then Bandlink software from launching. After I did this (in the registry - don't go there) the CD booted up fine and I was able to play it. I was even able to rip it to my music hard drive."
Followed by
"if you intall the Bandlink software, you can get access to a bonus track and other material."
If you have to disable the Bandlink software, to load it to your PC why would you get access to a bonus track after installing it?
