Musically sound, technically inept., March 8, 2005
This review is from: Frequent Flyer: Rio De Janeiro (Audio CD)
Suncomm Media Max anti piracy limits the usefullness of the CD. You cannot play it on a PC without installing their software. Ripping the CD tracks to your PC so you can load them onto your ipod, or other portable media device will not work since the tracks come out garbled.
As long as you are only planning on playing the CD in your car or home CD player you will be fine. For me, it is like purchasing a musical paperweight, since my Car, Home and portable MP3 players can't be used.
This goes for all of the Kinkysweet CD's. Bar Grooves, Frequent Flyer etc.

Nice music, shame about the piracy protection, March 25, 2006
This review is from: Frequent Flyer: Rio De Janeiro (Audio CD)
It may be true that the music is outdated and unoriginal but for those who are uninitiated into the nu-bossa scene like myself then the CDs provide some pleasant enough tunes.
But the real bummer comes from the piracy protection. Impossible to play the CD on your PC without installing MediaMax's programme, and even then you can only listen when the CD is in the machine... so no copying to your computer, transfering to iPod or the likes. Surely with the rise of MP3, MediaMax will have to change this ridiculous anti-piracy protection else all their CDs will be relegated to dusty shelves and never heard.

Frequent Groove ! ! !, May 12, 2009
This review is from: Frequent Flyer: Rio De Janeiro (Audio CD)
I got the Rio version of this copilation of CD's very groove B, I really like how some this artist not being from Brazil can create such cool felling that makes you feel like you are in this beatiful region of the world, now the first cd of this set is mellow kick back and chill my favorite track on this one will be "Under My Sensi" Boozoo Bajou [El Trio Electrico] extreme Relax mood if you are feeling like you need a break from it all this will be the track to listen to, the second cd is up beat one, on this one you can get ready to shake it, tracks mix in and the only thing you will need is a good dancer my favorite track on this one is "Palco" [Soulman & Ms Batucada Mix] the breaks on this track are just amaizing i love it every time i heard the break is coming i turn the volume all the way up no matter if the people next door complain [LOL].
Now some people have trouble rippping this copilation into their PC or their MP3 i wanna say i did have this problem, if you are trying to rip it with Windows Media Player you will never be able to do this, what you need to do is get one of your friends who has I tunes [Apple player] and this will do the trick.
