Which just goes to show that all of the copy protection or digital rights
managements schemes in the world can't stop copying.

If you can make it come out of speakers you can copy it.

When are record labels going to realize that selling products that do less
than the consumer expects is not a way to grow customer loyalty?

That is why supporting artists and labels that sell legal drm free downloads
and non-drm ed CDs is important.
