Although you could be forgiven for thinking iMacs just haver better musical taste than other computers, actually it's just confirmation that Celine Dion's latest CD kills iMacs. The copy protection fucks up the iMac CD-ROM's firmware, which basically locks the drive and requires the iMac to be taken to a service centre. This was suspected when the CD first came out; but now it's definite. The record companies think this is fine - they don't want you to use your computer to listen to the music you've paid for.
Meanwhile, Aphex Twin gets around piracy by building something really freaky/cool into his CD, which you can only see if you buy the disc :)
