  1. Please don't make additional threads in other forums about your merchandise.
  2. Sleeping in another room won't help, it can find you.
  3. so what's with the dumb bear
  4. Heh, welcome to 1998. Burning at high speeds is fine, but if you're talking about audio quality I seem to remember b3-er saying something about faster burns being less like the original in terms of sound quality. However, if your drive supports VeriRec, a method of increasing laser strength for faster burns and greater compatibility with older units, I would go with that. i think only Plextors have this feature, and i like it, fast burns even play on my old original Discman from '93, whereas discs from my Benq (acer) and LITE-ON would be flakey.
  5. Also realize that like most products only a few companies acutally make blank CDs and then sell them out to the likes of Sony and TDK. So many of these brands are in fact the same with a different label on them. CMC Magnetics makes many popluar brands of CDRs.
  6. Well you can try and up the resolution on your monitor to 800x600 at least for most websites. this can be done in display properties in the control panel. Also try reducing the txt size in firefox to seee if that helps...
  7. Can people stop remote linking to stupid tripod related sites? that would be great. tripod doesnt allow remote linking

  11. First one to post in this thread gets a title of their own choosing. ...and go.
  12. Well there's good news for Linux users, XCP doesn't work at all. I also found this tidbit on cdfreaks.com: There may be an easier way but this is how I cracked XCP. First, insert the disc (I used: A Static Lullaby) and hold the SHIFT key down for several seconds while closing the tray. I wait till drive activity stops before letting go of the SHIFT key. This bypasses the AUTORUN file. At this point you can read the disc but can not see the audio files (only the data files). I was the able to use SONIC to easily make an "exact copy" of the disc. I did not try, but I assume this copy and any additional copies will work on all regular CD players. The computer will not read the audio tracks on this disc either even when the SHIFT key is held when inserting. The copied disc does however have a gap on the outer part of the disc whereas the original does not. I then took a Sharpie Pen and filled in the gap as well as a slight amount of the outer edge of the burned region. When I inserted the disc again (I did hold down the SHIFT key but I'm not sure it is needed at this point) the drive went spastic trying to read the data in the shaded in area but when the noise stopped, the data files were gone and I could read the Audio tracks. I ripped a copy to Windows Media player without difficulty. It sounds great and the player was even able to access the album info from the online source. The great thing is I did not destroy my original. I may have been lucky to shade in just the right amount of area but it worked pretty well. My thought would be to shade a hair more of the outer edge of the burned area if the data files continued to appear. I definitely shaded the entire gap. I know this is not very technical but it works. Look forward to seeing if this works for others. This method sounds a bit trial and error, so it may not work with everyone. You will also need a beefed up drive and decent duping software to make a clone of an XCP disc. My buddy has a Foo Fighters which I hear uses XCP. I'll be sure to stay on this for everyone. My idea is different, I plan on making an image of the disc on my computer, removing the data bullshit from the ISO, and rewriting the TOC so it becomes a Redbook CD, then reburning it. Just like when duping old Dreamcast games... Edit: Also, like with any hybrid CD-ROM, I may be able to use a simple hexadecimal editor to removes the extra bit encoded into the audio which encapsulates it into the XCP system, this bit prevents the audio from being ripped or played without the software. Without this bit, an XCP disc is esssentially neutered.
  13. Not on the XCP discs, this system is new and a little more tricky. I'll be sure to buy an album using this method and crack it. I'll tell you guys how it's done...just for your own edification.
  14. Here's a hint: Try making your point without equating people to nazis. You won't look like a big retard and people might take you seriously.
  15. Brown shirt? Wow, way to crap all over your own argument.
  16. Bah. I'd have that disc singing a new tune in seconds.
  17. When instering the disc, hold the shift key. Play normally. Visit this site to lay waste to all the useless copy protection schemes out there: http://www.cs.princeton.edu/~jhalderm/cd3/
  18. why don't you just email these people.
  19. I've been itching to shut it down since its creation.
