| My old computer was and I get cyclical rendundancy errors when I extract certain songs. What program can I use to copy the songs to my computer perhaps using a slower speed or a better process? |

| I'm just curious, as I had this problem when trying to copy some files from an archive DVD. I assumed it was just corrupt files on the media, and there was nothing I could do about it. |

| Try using IsoBuster. If there's only a couple bad sectors, chances are you can still recover it. |

If I recall correctly that's for audio CDs and not MP3s and other data.

Sometimes using a program like ISO Buster allows you to do it at slower speeds and it might even do a more thorough copy procedure, who knows. I had some luck with Alcohol 120% as well when I had a DVD that wouldn't let me copy the MPGs from it. |

Hehe, probably right :-) that was back in the day mp3s were unknown pretty much tho... a lot of the stuff was quite obscure too :( |
