photoChutzpah - a definition: "gall, brazen nerve, effrontery, incredible `guts,` presumption plus arrogance such as no other word and no other language can do justice to." So if I were you, I'd fuck off now before you waste any more time trawling through this. Seriously. Fuck off. Wanker.

I'm trying to put some of my older CDs onto my computer, since I figure 1000 of them are taking up a little bit too much space.

And lo and behold, I find some delightful releases by Sony that are copy protected, so they can only be played on OpenMG, Sony's own music player, and these tracks can then only be loaded onto Sony MP3 players.

Now - OpenMG is in my humble opinion the worst music filing system I've ever had the misfortune to use. In the days before MP3 I had a minidisc player, and it was a miraculous day when it was actually possible to transfer data. And now I'm stuck with a CD I can't listen to on my MP3 player because it's not Sony (because Sony products invariably tend to be a rip off).

What a load of bollocks.

So. If anyone can point me in the direction of some nice software that will record what's being played out of my speakers for a PC running Windows XP, then that would be lovely....
