Nora Jones new CD -- Copy Protection -- YIKES


Can you believe this?? We work for years to get the sonics right...and now we have to deal with this copy protection BS.

I've heard that since the copy protection is based in windows executable files...that you can simply copy the CD using a mac and the copy protection is gone.

Are there any computer techies out there that could confirm or refute this.

Thanks Budrew. I talked with a gal at Barnes and Noble Monday, she heard a pre-release and said the same as you, more variety. Too bad it isn't released as a SACD/CD hybrid first; I don't have an SACD player, but I prefer to purchase hybrids if possible.

Off topic, but I greatly prefer the Peter Malick - New York CD with her over her first CD, just my preference.
Someone in a review at Amazon.com of the new album said the SACD was being released at the same time. Don't know if this is correct, but you might check into it.
so somehow she didn't sell enough albums the first time and now the need it copy protected to sell more????
and no sacd/cd hybrid release from the get go!!!
blue note is not the same label it used to be.
record compaines just don't make enough money off of us.
For all you vinyl lovers like myself, the 200 gm LP will be out March 2004 (per the Acoustic Sounds site).
