The CD is excellent in my opinion. The only problem, which wasn't stated at the time of purchase, is that it will not play on some audio equipment such as car CD players, due to new anti-piracy protection. BUYER BEWARE!I have a 2001 VW Golf and it doesn't play in my CD changer. Ironically, I've already put the CD on my iPod and will probably burn an illegal copy of the CD in order to get it to play in my car. Hopefully that will solve the problem.It's another instance of ill-convceived technology that creates more problems than it solves. I've read of other technology that makes CDs (such as the new Foo Fighters and Dave Matthews Band) incompatible with iPods. see this article on Yahoo! news: (...)To sum it up: Coldplay rocks, record companies don't. Be careful.
