i don't see a philosophical issue if you own the CD and are ripping it for
personal use. If they infringe on your personal use, that's a problem.
And I find the technical description of only allowing it to be ripped a
fixed number of times silly. If it's a read only media, how can they
enforce that. Just go to another untainted machine (I'm assuming the rip
count is a cookie somewhere)
