[vorbis] Here we go again...

[Eric de Fontenay]

Could you send me an url where I could get more information on SpinDoctor?
I also wanted to note that I've heard that the CDs can't be played on portable CD players and  high-end car players due to the anti-skipping technology. Can anyone confirm this?

Thanks,

Eric
