Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Thanks for the birthday wishes, y'all.
Lee! Congrats on the new job!
Where do they get off trying to control what software I use to listen to the CD?
Copy-protected CDs are relatively new, but they've been an annoyance on the market for a little while now. I think there's a way to get around that with the proper application of a felt-tip marker, but I can't remember which part of the CD you need to cover.
Emily, does it say anywhere in the product listing or on the outside of the package about that restriction? If not, I'd return it without compunction. Even if so, I might give it a shot.
Not that I can see, but I'm not sure where to look. I got it from Amazon (I admit, I did originally see it on the HRC store Website, but I had an Amazon gift certificate, so...)
ETA: Oh, wait, in this itty-bitty print on the bottom of the back cover it says, "This disc contains copy control technology. It is designed to be compatible with yadda yadda ... Minimum requirements MS Windows 95, yadda" but it doesn't say anything about only being playable with WMP.
Thanks Lysana.
ita, I searched, but couldn't figure out which was the dark one. Link?
What ita said. Are there certain studios doing this? I wouldn't knowingly buy a CD like that.
The listing has expired, Lee. The day after she linked to it, so it was very lucky she saw it then.
Dude, I'm watching Lost, and you can't make me like Shannon. You just can't. And the way they're trying is the absolute worst way.
Oh well. Hopefully I'll get to see it before I leave.

Probably, but it will most certainly be a horrible mess.
An apartment that's a mess? I'm shocked. Shocked, I tell you.
I know about you and your delicate sensibilities. I don't want to startle you.
So here's the deal (cross your fingers): It's about the size of my apartment now, which I understand is big for one bedroom. Anyway. It has curtains, and a sheer screen on each window -- there are sliding doors to the bedroom (onto a balcony) and the living room (out onto the corridor). Sort of an L-shape, so there's a perfect place to put the small table. The kitchen is a bit bigger than the one I have now, with better counter space (granite counters to boot), all new appliances, and more cupboards.
The bathroom ROCKS. Huge sink, textured brown tile -- separate shower and bathtub. The bedroom's about the size of the one I have now, with a walk-in closet.
Quiet neighbourhood, just east of Westwood, south of Santa Monica.
Lost is making me ill, unrelatedly.
