How to Exploit Compact Flash media on Enhanced CD

With the entitled information I've supplied, I ask that you not use this information directing to piracy. I wrote this information for you to store the extra content compacted on Digital Audio Disks, for personal use, and for backup reasons. Please respect the industry, and their content!

Hey it's me again; to tell you howto Rip out Enhanced CD Extras which are bundled inside of a single flash object on a Digital Audio Disk!

You maybe asking me, why do this? Well that's a good question, and it's simple to imply to. Did you know that Flash based extras on enhanced CDs aren't very widespread for others to take a look at? Or what about brothers on your network who are to poor to purchase these disks to even get a chance to look at behind the scenes, special footage, and bonus features? Or what about the people who can't access the Album itself, and have no resource to even look at it, and it maybe their favorite band? Or what about future CD Failure, and it snaps in half and then you permenantly lose the data in it's entrity? That would suck! - But I have good news! I'm here to teach you how it can be done, with just a few simple steps.

NOTE: enhanced CD's will display 2 signitures notifying you of that it's got more content on it, than just the Digital media tracks.these signitures are a Plus symbol, and also a Melody symbol.

What you need:

1: WinRAR (You can download the evaluation version @ www.rarlabs.com)
2: The CD Which contains the Flash object including the compacted features and extras
3: A CD-Rom Drive

Ok, Once winRAR has been downloaded and installed, please suceed to the following...

Alright so you've know got that Disk with the compact extras in a flash object, so You'll want to insert that into your CD Rom drive. Now let your computer see the disk. Now usually the Flash will deploy, but on some systems they don't catch the autorun.ini file. anyways, if the flash does deploy exit it. Now, goto Start>My Computer, Now here's where you'll see all of your drives and such. Locate the CD-Rom drive which your CD is in. now RIGHT CLICK on the drive and click winRARS feature "ADD TO ARCHIVE..." Now it'll bring you to a place to save it as, then a prompt will desplay from winRAR, Click browse, then designate the file to be saved to desktop. Then by default it'll be saved as "Archive" But you can rename it to whatever you want. Then once all is done, click Ok on the winRAR Console. Boom! Data has been successfully ripped, and all the movies, special features are yours to share with your friends who mosh to your music.
