" The only problem I've encountered with CDs containing some form of watermark or copyright protection is that my Rega Apollo CDP will not output a digital signal (SPDIF or Toslink) if the CD is copyright protected. I've had to rip those CDs to hard drive and then burn a CDR disc. Plays those discs just fine."
How do you know that those discs had either watermarking or other DRM? Record labels do not advise of the fact on the packaging. One thing that is clear is that if a CD so treated cannot be read by a standard redbook player then the record company would go out of business pretty quickly. In any case watermarking cannot be removed by making a rip as it is contained within the music data and so will be in the rip as well. Anti-copying DRM should mean that no rip could be made at all.
I believe that you are incorrectly attributing the cause of your Rega's failure to play the disc. It is more likely to be something either optical or mechanical that prevented that particular player's mechanism from reading ToC.
