On CNet.com we can find an interview with SunnComm's chief executive Peter Jacobs, I would recommend it to read it yourself and see how the companies thinks about its own protection
As they talk about it in this interview it is pretty useless. Besides that they think 99% of the people don't want to steal music, well I'm sure about that, because sharing it on online music services is not my defition of stealing when an entire is still 20$ !
Q: Many people say copy-protection schemes don't work. If you can hear the music, you can copy it and steal it. What makes your technology different? A: The technology that we sell is a padlock to music. If you have a lock cutter, a bolt cutter, you can cut that padlock off. If you're determined to steal the music, the music can be stolen. Our technology is not thief proof. What it's meant to do is provide a speed bump to people who don't steal things, and wish to use them in the parameters that are suggested by the artists...If you give people what they want with respect to their ability to copy the music in ways that they think is reasonable, they will not ever attempt to circumvent the technology. Only hackers will attempt to circumvent the technology in order to prove that it can be done. We're not designing the technology for them. |
