Wow, recording via loopback. I mean, who would have thought of that?

Oh, wait - that's how people bootlegged tapes since before I was born.

No level of copy protection will EVER WORK. As long as the end result is that you can still listen to the music, any capturing program can intercept the signal at the soundcard if not from memory and save back into an open file format.

The only way around that is encrypting the music and embedding a private key into our eardrums. :p
