Hi Jim, We only sell budget cd's, covering Artists etc. from the 40's to the 90's.I imagine most of the cd's we sell are not copy protected, (I cannot be sure of this) However, we offer a full refund for any purchase, for whatever reason, if cd's are returned to us in "as new" condition. We want happy customers, and if copy protection means audio cd's can't be played on the vehicle of choice, then that seems wrong. Regards Don.
