Customers put kibosh on anti-copy CD
Complaints about anti-copying technology have forced a record label to issue CD replacements for angry consumers -- another setback for the music industry's stuttering campaign against record piracy. BMG Entertainment confirmed Monday that it has set up a hotline for consumers in the United Kingdom who are having trouble playing Natalie Imbruglia's latest CD in some CD and DVD players. The disc will be replaced by retailers or by the label itself, a company representative said. "Certain limitations of the protection technology were unforeseeable and only (emerged) when the CDs were released into the general public," said Regine Hofmann, a BMG spokeswoman. "We do need to respond."

I have not bought a cd in a long time, but if I do and it doesn't work in my comp.... back it will go in a hurry! For a refund, not a replacement.
