What are the legal implications of this? After all, the
user does not expect an audio CD to install software, and
he certainly does not wish that it does. Is there a warning
or disclaimer on the CD cover? Isn't that dangerously
close to a criminal offense, "data alteration" or whatever
your local legislation calls it?
