unCDcopy
Your CD-Player is not able to play copy protected CDs? The CDs you bought is not similar to the CD-DA standard? This Tool makes an similar but an analog (not prohibited by federal law) copy. This copy will be similar to the CD-DA standard and can be played in any CD player. unCDcopy leads you in seven steps through the copying process. UnCDcopy makes normal audio copies or MP3 files (the Lame Encoder is required to make copies in MP3 format). UnCDcopy is an Initiative of the RapidSolution Software AG in co-operation with the computer magazine c't from Heise. The Project is really dead and Heise also removed the database but I'll keep the program cause I think that it'll be useful for some people. An installing guide with feature description is included.
unCDcopy runs on Windows 98, ME, 2000 and XP.
Download Version 1.7.0.5 of unCDcopy.
