I just bought a new cd, 2004 release. I noticed on the cd cover is says at
the bottom "copy controlled - this disc contains Copy Control technology -
on some equipment, for example car CD players, playback problems may be
encountered". Ok, so I play the cd in my home stereo cd player (fairly
cheap consumer Sony) and it sounds good initially. But after a while, I
feel I could hear occasional digital "clicks and pops"... randomly and not
too often, but indeed heard some stuff going on here and there. But then I
get to the last 4 tunes, and there is a noticeable bad noise throughout the
songs... a repetitive "chop chop chop" noise... a digital type noise. I
then played the cd on a different newer Sony consumer CD/DVD player, same
exact thing.

Either I have a bad defective cd, or this "copy controlled" balony is
causing trouble. What is "copy control technology"? Has anyone else had
any bad experiences with it? This is the first I have heard of it.... and
my initial impression is not a good one.


Hmm,

1. How old is your CD player?
2. How many minutes of music is on the CD?
