[linux-audio-user] Reading/playing a "copy protected" CD : cdparanoia seems not to help

Maybe that's because there are more people able to make CDs than there 
ever were who had access to a vinyl pressing plant. But there were 
plenty of badly-made vinyl discs too - I've got more than a couple 
where the hole is drilled off centre, or even more strangely with 
hole in the centre but the groove closer to one side of the edge than 
the other. Master discs could often be damaged or worn out too.
