It really depends on the firmware. Copy protections that are not compliant 
with the Redbook (most are not) rely on the way most CD drives firmwares are 
implemented. Some old CD drives are able to extract digital audio from 
protected discs, and some recent drives (including my plextor CD-RW drive) 
are not. Just try your luck with different hardware if yours fails.

Have a look at giFT (gift.sf.net). It is basically a daemon that let you 
connect to different file sharing networks. Best of all, it come with OpenFT, 
which is a free (like in free software) file sharing network, FastTrack and 
Gnutella plugins.
