Matthew Ruben has authored an excellent article on audio CD copy protection.
This is the most cogent explanation I’ve seen of how and why copy-protected CDs can crash and even damage your computer.
Ruben takes the time to provide excellent, in-depth analysis of the two audio CD formats and explains why the protected discs “are not out-of-spec but rather are defective, and have intentionally been made defective, using the Blue Book format as a trojan horse to disable the user’s hardware when that hardware is a computer.”
