Sony was raked over the coals. Now here's a new one. Virgin has issued a Coldplay CD that may not play CD's on computers or anything other than a "standard" CD player. The only notice you receive becomes available only after you purchase and open the CD. Lawsuit anyone?I've linked to a legal blog rather than the underlying boingboing entry because the comments may shed more light on the viability of a suit.
By the way, MB, any suits will almost certainly be based on good ol' state contract and consumer protection laws.
