A Guide to Copying Copy-Protected Music CD’s |
|
Many people enjoy being able to copy the music from their own CD’s and create CD’s that only feature their favorite songs. This is great for taking music on road trips or to work. Why take 10 CD’s that only have a few songs on each that you enjoy when you can create 1 CD with nothing but what you want to hear? The process of copying copy protected music CD’s isn’t complicated if you have the right tools available to do it.
Most copy protected music CD’s have encrypted codes in place that must be deciphered before you can copy the music. The music industry was forced to take action due to the high number of individuals who were copying music CD’s and reselling them. Since they are less expensive than purchasing the original music CD the music industry has lost millions of dollars.
Keep in mind that the laws have been enforced more in various countries relating to the violation of copy protected music CD’s. Depending on the country those prosecuted can be fined, charged with a felony, or put in jail for their actions. While it is perfectly legal to copy this protected music, it is only so if you use it for your personal use such as to backup what you have already purchased.
There are a variety of tools you will need to get started before you can copy music CD’s. A great place to find these tools is HERE . To get the best quality from the process of copying protected music CD’s you will first need the use of a computer system that offers Windows XP as well as CD writing capabilities.
The process will require the use of an IsoBuster that will allow you to save the data that is on music CD’s you own but that have damage to them. Do you have several CD’s you love but they skip in places? The IsoBuster will help eliminate the copy having the same issues as the original. You will then need to place the tracks you want to copy onto your computer in either a file or on your desktop.
As you get ready to copy protected music CD’s you will find that they contain two sessions instead of one. The actual music tracks are found in the first session with the second one being for the system to read. Therefore you only have to be concerned with session one as you are copying the music.
Simply click on the audio tracks you wish to copy and then choose the Extract Objects option from the menu. You will be asked for a destination directory and you will respond with the original file name that you started with. After the computer tells you all the files have been copied you can shut down the IsoBuster.
Using your CD burning software, drag each one of the audio tracks from the folder that you placed them in and place them in the order you want them to play on the CD. All of the songs you copy will be on the CD but they will no longer be in a copy protected format.
The amount of time it will take you to copy protected music from CD’s is going to depend on how familiar you are with the process, the equipment and tools you are using, and the amount of free space you have on your computer. It will take some time to get the process down but you will love the benefits of being able to burn your favorite songs into a couple of CD’s instead of having to carry them all around with you.
