Some commercial CDs are designed to prevent copying,
and efforts to do so will fail. Only single session Data CDs
can be copied in Disc-at-Once mode.
The source drive (CD-ROM, DVD-ROM, or CD-RW), must
be capable of reading audio digitally. Not all drives support
digital audio extraction. See Testing Your System
Configuration. Easy CD Creator tests your drive to
determine its capabilities when the source CD is inserted.
If your CD-RW drive supports Disc-at-Once mode, you can
copy Audio CDs in Disc-at-Once mode.
Some CD-ROM drives may not be able to read a DirectCD
disc. If you have a CD-ROM drive that is MultiRead
capable, there should be no problem.
Mixed results. Some CDs copy perfectly; others do not,
possibly because the CD is formatted to circumvent
copying or because some CDs are not made properly.
Copy CD Extra CDs in Disc-at-Once mode; otherwise,
some audio may be lost if there is less than a two-second
gap between tracks on the source CD.
Requires a source CD-ROM drive capable of reading CD-
ROM XA. Most current CD-ROM drives support this.
