  1. I like the soundtrack of LOTR - The fellowship of the Ring so much that I bought the CD. I backed up a copy of it so I can play in my car. However, it seems like some how there are scratchy noise was injected in the songs of the backup copy. On the back of the case it said "Enchenced CD". Anyone has any idea? It's not my copier. I have made backup of my music before and they are all clean.

  2. I'm not a computer genius or anything but doesnt an "Enhanced" cd just play a video when you put it in your pc, I didnt think it had anything to do with it being protected. Enhanced cds are hard to copy,I only have one program that will do it, Roxio disc copier. all my other programs give me write errors. If you look on the back there is probably an extra ring, seperating the video and the music, I think thats what causes the write error.

    I may be wrong on this, Im just giving an educated guess.

    The copyprotection for CD's will produce a scratchy sound when you convert to mp3, I have no idea if that happens when you just copy the cd directly.

  4. Yes, scratch noise are being injected in the songs when I did the backup. Is there a utility to get around it?

    You might give EAC a try. It tries to rip CDs with bad errors using the error correction data on the disk, which may be what the copy protection scheme is based on, intentional nearly uncorrectable data errors. Most Audio CD rippers don't make use of the error correction coding on the disks, but EAC does.

  6. Hm, it seems like this CD is definitely copy protected. I used EAC and after ripping the wav file, there's no sound at all.

  7. I had the same problem.
    Play the CD in the normal way on your computer.
    Run a ggod audio capture program(such as AudioMagic)
    Using an Audio editor split the tracks from the captured wav file.
    burn wave files to cd.
    enjoy non-scratchy music.
