New CDs & Winamp

I've got a few real, genuine CDs now after joining BMG. At least two of them will not play in Winamp, because the fucking asshole publishers hid the music tracks. One of them has a built-in player which will not play the next song when the current one ends unless it is the application. That's totally fucking unacceptable, but still. This other one won't even do that.

Thanks, guys, for reminding me why I usually just get music off Kazaa. 'Preciate it!

Anyhow, is there anyway to get Winamp to work with these discs?

Then those aren't real, genuine CDs, and you should return them, as they do not meet the Red Book definition of a CD.

I doubt it, but I suggest you set up a Linux box and see what you can find out by looking at the file system structure on the discs.
