Getting NPGMC Tracks playing now

Does anybody know if it is possible to get the tracks from NPGMC playing nowadays. I bought The Chcolate Invasion and The Slaughterhouse back when teh club was going but my cds have all become scratched and unplayable.

I still have all of the original files but cant play thembecause the stupid licences are unobtainable nowadays.

Anyway of getting them back or playing them?

Afraid not. You're not the only person who is pissed off by this state of affairs. Fortunately my copied CDs are still functioning wink

Fortunately my purchased official releases are still in excellent condition, with the exception of two cd's that skip one time. cool

If you have a Mac, you can just take the files and put them on your desktop, then reburn them. there might be a scratch or skip here and there, but that's all.

I've learned it's always good to convert all purchased music to mp3 or some other format without licenses. Then burn a couple of data cds with your files. That way you won't lose them. I still have all of my NPGMC stuff. The only files I cannot get to play (which is because I couldn't find a program to convert them) are the video files that came along after the quicktime files.
