FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions
Why can my car radio play my protected Audio-CDs when my DVD-ROM can not even read it?
Audio-CDs often do not conform to the redbook standard. Often they have somehow exotic data structurs; The error correction that is built in the reader often tries to correct the structur and falsifies it. (that's the trick of audio copyprotection). Sometimes it even cannot identify any CD in the drive. If the error correction can not be disabled and the drive does not understand the content on the CD, CloneCD can do nothing to make it readable. That's a hardware issue.
CD-players in car radios and standalone cd-players just filter the errors and do not try to correct them. So you are able to hear music.
CD-drives in PCs are more fussy. They do not try to filter the errors. They want to read and write all data error corrected.
Generally CD-writers read audio-CDs more reliable than DVD-roms. But even writers that read almost all CDs are rare.
