Metallica - "St. Anger" Unrippable?

I was ripping the newest editions to my CD library and when I got to Metallica's "St. Anger" album, it froze. I tried it 3 times, and followed those times up with another disc, which I ripped without incident. Is it possible that the CD is protected or is it a software issue? I'm using Easy CD-DA 8.1.2, in case anyone else is experiencing the same issues.

no idea Cinema but my version of St. Anger uploaded fine wiv iTunes

i know that some CDs have that "copy-controlled" thing.
it never happened to me, but one of my friends..
her PC is freezing each time she's putting some CD into drive 😕

it can be yes

your computer is possessed by Dave Mustaine, it must be cleansed..

its the only way you can fix the problem im afraid..
