Back from another trip to Oslo with my class.

Met up with Forcer this time too, and while that was nice, it was a pity it only lasted for a couple hours. Oh well, another time maybe
Got some Mountain Dew from an import store. Yum, me like.

Got some DVDs that ain’t worth mentioning here, but more of interest is a CD I got: Red Hot Chili Pepper - Greatest Hits. While browsing the CDs, the first thing I saw was the new album from Britney. Cool, I thought. Until I saw a “Copy Protection”-label in the bottom-right corner. So I picked up the RHCP disc instead. Coming back home, and tearing off the price label - what did I find? Below the pricetag, a “Copy Protection”-label! Oh-No!

I remember Robbie Williams last album wouldn’t play on my flat-screen iMac, however my older tray-loading iMac played and ripped it without problems. So I though the same would be the case here. But, low and behold, my PowerBook plays and rips the RHCP CD with NO PROBLEMS AT ALL! Ah, pure AAC goodness - thank you Apple! Since a mate bought the Britney CD, I’ll rip that one too hehe.

Had I seen the “Copy Protection”-label, I probably wouldn’t have bought the CD, but now I’m glad I did. And I might even buy music in the future too, unless I see a new and improved protection scheme is put to use. Can’t wait for the iTunes Music Store to make it’s way to Europe.
