A friend asked me to make a copy of a borrowed CD. I took it home, ripped it into waves and then burned a copy with CD Text. I took it in to work to give him, but before I did I thought I’d listen to it. Good thing I did as it was silent. Tried it in another PC and when I still got silence, I tried in the car – nothing. Windows explorer read it as 20 cda tracks, the PC CD player showed 20 tracks and it “played it like normal, just no sound. Whe I got back home I checked the wave files and while they looked in explorer like normal files, when opened in a wave editor, they were 2 straight lines. Tried ripping 1 track again to check and got the same results, Ripped to an MP3 with the same results. So I figured what the heck, let’s try the copy CD option -that worked. What the…?
