Miscellanea

*This is one of many albums that was released with a controversial copyright protection program which limited the amount of copies that could be made of the disc and prevented the files from being ripped into MP3s. The software also prevented the CD from being uploaded onto iTunes, and thus iPods. Incidentally, iPod users who contacted BMG's customer support were given instructions on how to upload it onto iTunes, which involved circumventing the encryption software. Users were told to burn a disc using the encryption software, and then using the burned disc to upload their songs.

* The song "Reason Is Treason" was featured on the fifth soundtrack of Fox's hit show "The OC", entitled "".
