I haven't tried using a sound recorder yet because I don't have anything that would give me decent quality.
This really beats. I'm definitely going to write a letter of complaint and demand my money back. No, the store won't accept a return, just an exchange for the same product. I'm going to see if I can't send it back to the record company or the distributor or something, this is bullshit. I hope they realize it's shit like this that encourages me to download and fileshare.
Thanks for all the moral support, fellas.

Please do... there's nothing that pisses me off more than when I buy a CD and I can't rip it.
I'm always around a computer, so 99% of the music I listen to at home or the office is in MP3 format.
I also have a ipod that I take everywhere.
And lastly, after losing 50 cd's that I had left in my car (and finding out that my car insurance wouldn't cover it), I only keep a copy in my car. The original stays on the shelf at home all the time. I also have a MP3 head unit in my car, so most of the cd's in my car hold 4 or 5 albums on a single disc.
The one thing I have found is that often a retailer will have two versions of the cd on their shelf. Sometimes I have noticed that some cd's on the shelf are from a different "revision" and lack the copy protection.
But basically, If I get a cd home and can't rip it, I will go out of my way to let the record company know that I will be downloading a copy.
