Listening to the score from Schindler's List is an experience equally pleasant and disturbing; pleasant where the music relates the sanguine outlooks of the Jewish people, and disturbing as we see the atrocities that try to break their spirit.

These audio discs have been intentionally corrupted by the record companies to make it harder for people to get them to play correctly on computers.
All a professional counterfeiter would have to do is to try a disc in a number of different PCs until one of them worked.
However, if the error-correction codes have already been overloaded to "copy-protect" the disc, then there is nothing left to deal with problems if the CD gets scratched at that point.
