I bought the new Interpol album yesterday (at a shop!) and took it home last night to convert it to mp3 and dump on my player to listen to at work today. The cnuts at the record company have copy protected it and therefore I cannot rip any mp3's from it. If I can't convert this album then I shall be forced to return it to the shop for a refund and then download the album for free. I've heard a rumour that if you hit 'shift' when you put the cd in the computer it disables the auto-run which by-passes the annoying software on the cd. Is this true? Douglas? Alan? Anyone?
