Foo Solution

CD

Earlier today I bitched about the Foo frustration I was feeling trying to rip "In Your Honor" to MP3.  I mentioned I had a few tricks up my sleeve, and one of them just worked.

I had a friend rip them with AnyDVD, which celebrates the fact it can play, copy and rip protected Audio CDs.  It worked wonderfully and produced some fine sounding files.  I finally have my Foo.

I should read the archives of my own site more often.  It turns out I've been down this road before.  Back in October I had a similar experience with the Beastie Boys' "To The 5 Boroughs".  It too refused to play on my home PC because of copy control software.  At work, however, I had no problems ripping that CD whereas I couldn't get "In Your Honor" to rip properly without the assistance of AnyDVD.

In my honour indeed.
