I called Sound Choice customer service to give them a piece of my mind about Media Cloq, but I found out that they have stopped using it untill they get the problem of it not playing on some DVD-CD-CD+G units correctly.
So I purchased some sets of foundation#2 and some bricks, and none of them have any protection on them. If you are like me, I don't think anyone makes a better sounding disc than Sound Choice, buy them while you can with out protection.
