Lisa (& the rest of y'all),

Two people have reported that the Swagger CD copied to
mp3 just fine via Windows Media Player. As for myself,
I went into HMV specifically to buy Swagger Deluxe,
saw the the retail CD pack was clearly labelled as
including copy protection technology, and as a result
chose not to buy it 'cos I anticipated it being a
hassle: virtually all of my music listening is from
hard drives. If Swagger had never been on CD before
I'd buy it confident of extracting lossless digital
audio from the disc if only by a workaround. In order
just to get the few unreleased extras it felt like too
much bother. Maybe I'm the only lost sale due to copy
protection concerns, maybe not...
