[mal]

i am thinking of buying a liteon cdr,24\10\40,i know i will be able to back up any games that i buy,well most of them,but will it back up any audio cds that i buy that has audio cd protections in them.
someone mentioned that it wouldnt be able to copy cd protections on audio cds,it wasnt on this forum.
