Protected discs

Discs that can't read the last track are using Multisession protection that prevents accessing the last track. Microstudio does have a way around that, which you can then write to a separate CDR CDG disc and then import into Hoster.

Mediacloq protection is something that MTU cannot overcome currently. We have tried to work with Suncom (the authors of Mediacloq) to allow legal importing to a computer of the songs you have legally paid for! However, they refuse to even respond to our multiple contacts. MTU's position AGAINST PIRACY is well known and clearly stated in our Forums, web site and license agreements. However, Suncom apparently has no desire to work with anyone. My guess is they have no solution to this problem. Their "protection product" only offers a brick wall as far as end users are concerned. Their focus is solely on providing companies like SC with absolute protection that prevents backup.

Our Forums clearly state that to avoid the problem SC has created by using Mediacloq protection, you should not buy these discs. Demand from your distributors that you WILL NOT buy Mediacloq protected discs! Eventually SC will get the message. Your economic votes WILL make a difference!

It is not fair to ask a legal-focused company like MTU to break copyright protection means. That is not what we are in business to do. We believe every user has the right to make a legal backup copy. Copyright laws in the USA do NOT forbid this.
