| EMI Records, Copy Control, High-end CD players Jeffrey,I am very curious as to what CD player you had the problem on. I feel better knowing that I am not the only one with this problem. I have sent a letter of complaint to Ted Cohen, EMI Music, Senior VP, DIgital Development, as he is involved... | |
| Any problems with Springsteens DualDisc? BTW did you ever try to play the DualDisc on your Cary player ? Does it work without any audio errors ? | |
| Any problems with Springsteens DualDisc? Art,Not that I am that crazy about the CD, it was released as a CD only in Canada and could be obtained online amazon.ca if you so desired. But, I agree it really bugs me when record companies unilaterally decide to release certain recordings excl... | |
| Any problems with Springsteens DualDisc? Even better, make those CD-Rs devoid of the copy control and then distribute copies widely to all your friends or even in front of your favorite record store. I still don't think Sony-BMG will get the message. Unfortunately, they keep forcing new... | |
| Any problems with Springsteens DualDisc? Sony Japan posted today Q&A about the DualDisc format... The text below comes from a Japanese->English translation, so there might be errors... "...DualDisc is a new disk that consists of the side (non-DVD side) only for music that records ... | |
| Any problems with Springsteens DualDisc? Yes, I agree:Here is a statement Meridian made regarding these DualDiscs. I believe Sony made similar warnings for some of their machines:Meridian Issue Statement On DualDisc Compatibility Meridian has issued a statement on the compatibility of th... | |
| Any problems with Springsteens DualDisc? Forget the politics ... why aren't you guys doing something about these damn DualDiscs. I am pissed off that these huge record companies are bringing in these new disc formats (DualDisc, Copy Controlled discs), regardless that they are not in comp... | |
| Spoon live.... Agree ... I discovered them only recently with Gimme Fiction ... I'm still getting into KTM. Next year I need to go to SXSW. | |
| tube amp will drive von schweikert VR4-jr? A local dealer has paired the VR4-jrs with deHavilland 845 (30WPC), along with a Hovland HP-100 pre and Naim CDS3. The system was beautiful, playing in a room around 14 x 20. So, I don't think you need hundreds of watts. Perhaps, a little more pow... | |
| Non-Copy Controlled Coldplay X&Y I spoke with emmlabs this afternoon and they said the problem is an interaction between the Cactus layer of copy protection and the Philips software/hardware. They said two possible solutions: depending upon the software version of the CDSD, a mor... | |
| Power Amps for Kharma Perhaps more than you, I was very reluctant to consider tubed equipment when I was first deciding on my amps. Yet, once I started looking at Kharma speakers, I realized that I much preferred the sound of tubed amps or at least hybrids with these s... | |
| EMI Records, Copy Control, High-end CD players I am curious whether anyone else has tested their Copy Controlled version of Coldplay X&Y on their emmlabs CDSD or other high-end CD player. I bought X&Y today in Canada with Copy Controlled protection, and sure enough, within 5 seconds of... | |
| Coldplay X&Y New Release Chris (The_kid),I wish I could same, but my experience differs. I already heard the leaked version of X&Y last week and I must say I was underwhelmed with the record. I think I have to agree with the reviews by pitchforkmedia.com and NY Times.... | |
| Wintersleep yes, us Canadians have a lot more to be proud of these days in the indie rock scene: Arcade Fire, Dears, Stars, Constantines, Hot Hot Heat, New Pornographers, Black Mountain etc etc. Not like the old days, when our only embarrasing exports seemed ... | |
| Coldplay X&Y New Release 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 wit... |
