KinkySweet Records dumps SunnComm copy protection

cdfree used our news submit to tell us "I bet it isn"t the only company that dropped MediaMax. Quiet Tiger Inc., which is the exclusive marketing arm of SunnComm and through which all MediaMax revenue flows, only had $105,972 in revenue for 2004. The agreement was entered into in early March, so that is 10 months of revenue from MediaMax licenses."

"We no longer use any form of copy protection software on our CDs. Some of our earlier releases incorporate Media Max software by Sunncomm. If you have purchased a Kinkysweet CD that uses this software, and are having trouble transferring audio files to your PC"s music player, or to a portable device, or for any other technicalor playability issues, visit www.sunncomm.com/support . We are committed to the quality of our products. If you have purchased one of our CDs and are unable to play it in the device of your choice, then we will gladly replace it free of charge."

The only thing better than the headline and the revenue informatiuon from cdfree, is the statement KinkySweet made about their commitment to resolve problems due to Sunncomms added (and costly) nuisances. Thanks for the news cdfree, lets hope this is just the beginning and some more record companies realise what the main actitvities are for a music CD in the 21st century. Even Sunncomms logo looks like a setting Sun to me! If you wish to read the statement from the source, just hit this link and then select "contact".
