Jim Kiler and d day used our newssubmit to tell us that the Electronic Frontier Foundation has issued an Action Alert urging people to support Philips' stand against audio CDs which use anti-copying systems:
 Under the slogan "You buy it, you own it!" the EFF is describing these such CDs as "dysfunctional," and being sold under false pretences. "Consumers are buying CDs in a record store or online, paying full price for what they believe is a normal CD, only to return home to discover that the CD won't play on their computers, in their cars and even on certain other CD components. Because corrupt CDs may bear the 'CD' trademark and are sold alongside ordinary CDs, consumers are being fooled into purchasing inferior products." |
Personally I too wouldn't like receiving a CD that I couldn't play in my PC. It has happened to me once but luckily for programs like EAC and Feurio!...
