The vinyls for sure are copy protected and the same goes for CDs if the are commercially produced.
As I have coped the vinyls to MP3 and ripped the CDs myself to MP3, no they are not copy protected. Vinyl records, not being digital, cant be digitally protected.

I'll try that. Thanks.
I took your use of the term, i.e., "copy protected", as it applies to copyright, which it still is, and not to technological protection measures as you meant.
While I personally don't mind, I think some people would raise privacy concerns of them scanning their library. Also, as some have mentioned above, some people don't properly keep tabs on their library and are missing a lot of things in their tags.
I wonder if those people know what the Genius feature does? It scans the library for recommended albums and songs...unless they haven't activated it...
It is a wait and see with Ping. Many of my favorite artists are not there. It is annoying that my music isn't scanned so the artists recommended for me to follow would fit my tastes. This is especially odd since I was asked about what music genre I listen to. Apple needs to focus on getting all of the artists on Ping then it will be a real success. The fixes they've implemented are much welcomed. It would be nice for Facebook and Apple to work their differences out but each has their own agenda.
Also, it would be nice to be able to search by lyrics and genre too. Searching by artist alone kind of inhibits the discovering new music bit.
Ping blow's monkey nuts. Can't even find Green Day! WTF????
