Coldplay X&Y New Release

i just wish that bush would refrain from using the airwaves for his political music.

Cornfedboy-

At least Bush was elected, which means it's his job to sling the shit.. :)

Politics aside ... I am curious whether the Coldplay's X&Y is Copy Controlled in all regions. I know the Canadian verison will have CC ... What about USA, UK, Japan, Australian version. I am f' fed up with EMI and CC, as the last two discs with Copy Control 'protection' will not play in my emmLabs CDSD, without producing annoying clicks, snaps and pops. Rather than risk wasting my money on the Canadian disc, I want to find an unprotected version. Has anyone had any problems playing their X&Y on a high-end CDP due to the dreaded Copy COntrolled disc technology ?

I read a magazine that interviewed Martin, he is an idiot, I enjoy pop and rock like anyone else, but if you think it takes a big brain to write what coldplay does you are atleast as guilty of being an idiot as they are. They have been called "the next U2"....that fits me fine because U2 were another bunch of self-important assholes.
And yes I bought the "Rush" CD from C.P., I guess I drank the Kool-Aid that time.
I am pretty cool with people calling them Genious..he can be King of the idiots.

Not that critics make up our minds for us, they at least give us food for thought. In this past Sunday's New york Times, on the front page of one of the sections, there was a review of the latest Coldplay--not very flattering. I think every fan of Coldplay and fan of pop/rock should read this. I am a fan of the pop/rock genre, but Coldplay leaves me, well, a little cold.
