I have never heard of this "wright protection" you speak of? Did some
company pay millions of dollars for this too, so it could be cracked within
a week of being released to the public by the simplest of means?

If you "write to CD" and it is NOT a CD-RW disk and you do not have several
sessions on it - yes.. it will be "write protected". CD-Rs are "write once,
read many" mediums. CD-RWs are closer to write many/read many mediums.
However, anything you put on the CD will be write protected until it is
removed from the CD.

It's not "wright" protected, you moron, it's *write*
protected. As you have already been informed, *all* files
burned to CDs have the read-only attribute set. Is this
what you're babbling about?
