Fuck this shit, I'm getting Bittorrent.
Apparently, Sony music CDs, when played on your computer, install DRM malware that takes system resources, kicks a hole in your virus protection, makes Windows more buggy, and will kill your PC if you delete it. From the screenshots in this detective post, I'm hoping it's only Sony CDs that come with some special program you have to use to play them... I don't want to have to look at all my CDs and figure out which are from Sony, and which I might have played in my computer.
I see no reason to ever buy anything Sony puts out again. No CDs blank or full, no CD burner, no DVD player, no consoles nor games for consoles. Says MasterKwan:

At one point Sony was special and their products were made better than other comparible products. They were like the Honda of consumer products. Not anymore. Typical Sony products these days are made on the same chinese assembly lines as the rest of the store branded crap you see at BB or Walmart. I specifically won't buy Sony anymore. Not because of this new DRM stuff but, because their products are simply unreliable.My car is a benchmark! Hoo hoo hoo!

buying music is far too dangerous. i'm going to download it all in future.Word.
