While browsing the latest about copy protections
schemes i came across this article from PCworld.com dated 11/05/01 and as always I am intrigued by the latest schemes.
The band's label, Jive Records, has implemented the technology to prevent you from playing the "Celebrity" CD on your PC. That also means no burning or ripping tracks so you can listen to "Celebrity" on your portable MP3 player. The move is an example of a get-tough trend being adopted by record labels that say they are losing profits to digital music pirates. |
Will they succeed? I think not, because every protection scheme that i have seen has fallen by the wayside.
