cracking copy protected CDs

[eclectica]

Is there a software program which can do this, so that the mp3s can be extracted? All I know is the marker on the outside edge of the CD trick, but that is a hardware solution, not a software solution. Check out this Napjunk forum thread:

There are different copy protection schemes. Each scheme probably requires a different method of cracking. I found a good site here:

This program (http://www.poikosoft.com/easycdda.html) claims to be able to copy copy-protected CDs. On the Napjunk forum, someone tested it on a protected CD and it worked.
