You know those pesky “Copy-Protected” CDs? Unfortunately I’ve got a few of them (found out too late) and they were a pain to rip on the Windows box. Sometimes they’d crash iTunes (or other ripping software), and if it worked, well, they had some small gaps in them.

Not anymore. I have no idea whether it’s iTunes 6, or Tiger, but I can now rip right through them with perfect quality. (Not perfect as in lossless, but perfect as in 160 kbps VBR AAC.) On one disc it even found a bonus track, which I missed out on when I ripped it on Windows.

Also nice is how Tiger shows two discs if the CD contains a data part and an audio part. Perhaps that’s why ripping works so well?
