I purchased the Casting Shadows CD by Wolfsheim. I did not look at it properly in the shop and it turns out its a copy protected CD.
\nI never listen to my CDs directly, I rip them as soon as I can and then put them away for save keeping, listening to the MP3s on my iPod or Laptop via the radio if I have to. I don’t pirate music all my MP3s are from CDs I actually own and I don’t share any music.
\nNow with this Wolfsheim CD I had no choice but to resort to asking someone to look on P2P networks for me since it does not work in my PC and for most does not work in my 1999 Sony Surround system. He found an excellent 192k bit rate copy, now at least I can listen to the music I bought the way I want. I do not know how a small band like Wolfsheim (they are big in Germany) would sell out to the big record labels like this but it is definately giving me second thoughts about buying any more music of theirs and I am now definately not going to the live show that is here next month.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
