Can your CD player cope with the new technology?

Anti-copying technology has seen some buyers of the latest CD by pop star Natalie Imbruglia complain the disc won't work on their players.
Record company BMG Entertainment is just one of the big labels seeking to protect music from those who would 'rip' copies onto blank CDs or transfer a copyrighted disc into the MP3 format. However, it would seem its trial with the young Australian star's latest CD, White Lilies Island, has backfired, with reports on the net from some consumers who cannot get it to work on certain CD or DVD players.
Although thousands of copy-protected CDs have already entered the market, few are as high profile as Imbruglia's album, released just two weeks ago.
