    CD's all the way! You can backup/create your own mp3's & flacs from your original CD. :)

    I guess those people don't know how to burn an audio cd. I would never recommend somebody to burn an audio cd using mp3 files. Compressed audio to CD? Nah! You want uncompressed audio (.flac) > CD. You can burn an audio cd with mp3 files using Nero. Also burn an audio cd using .flac files. I also have all the flac & mp3's from the 10club downloads. Friends already have them and they burned them to audio cd easy as pie. Not sure what 'locked' you're talking about. :?

    I still don't understand what 'locked' means! Never heard of a 'locked' error through a burning software? Did they 100% fully download the tracks? What burning software are they using & what app are they using to extract maybe the mp3s or flacs?
