I read about Drive-in on numerous site and I downloaded the latest beta. http://www.flip4mac.com/drivein.htm
Drive-in is able to create an image of DVD and preserves its CSS content. Basically it kept the encryption intact and effectively avoid violating the DMCA.
I’ll update this as I play with it more.

It is very likely there will be bonus material from the future release “The Making of United Abominations (working title)” included, which would be included on releases in these two territories, as well as special exclusive tracks for major dealers in the US.

Starting March 1st, 2007 CompUSA is closing 126 of its 229 stores. The complete list can be viewed at CompUSA web-site.
http://www.compusa.com/locations/closing_stores.asp
CompUSA said that they are closing stores “with low performance or non strategic, old store layouts and locations faced with market saturation“. It is questionable for CompUSA to pull out of a major market such as Southern California.
According to CompUSA store managers, they are expecting around 90 days to clear out their inventories. In general, they are offering 10%-20% for all the merchandise, as time goes on more discounts will be offered. One of the CompUSA stores is offering up to 50% off the sticker price.
Dave Mustaine has revealed that Roadrunner Records chose the remake of “A Tout le Monde” as the first single off Megadeth’s upcoming “United Abominations” CD. The song was originally featured in Megadeth’s “Youthanasia” CD. This time the song was re-arranged and re-recorded as B-Side for Japanese market. The folks at Roadrunner Records really like the new rendition of the song so much, they chose it as Megadeth debut single on Roadrunner Records.
The song will be titled “A Tout le Monde (Set Me Free)” for the CD and called as “Set Me Free (A Tout le Monde)” for radio single.
Mustaine also adds that the song is now sped up and features original solos by Glen Drover in addition to the solos written by Marty Friedman. The song also features Lacuna Coil‘s Christina Scabbia on vocals.
The video for the song is schedule for shooting on March 8th and 9th, days before Megadeth goes on tour supporting Heaven and Hell.
