Sony BMG’s New Protective Scheme
Users will be allowed to make three additional CD copies for their own use and to store the music files on their computer in a protected format from Microsoft.
Sony BMG’s new copy-protection effort comes with at least one downside: PC users are unable to transfer the songs to Apple’s popular iPod portable music player, because Apple has declined to make its software compatible with Microsoft’s Windows Media digital rights management (DRM) system.
Bah! These companies wonder why people are so quick to crack these schemes. We can pay $15 for a music CD, and not even be able to port it to the iPOD? Why not just download the album protection free instead? Sound good Sony? Read about it here. (No, I’m not endorsing that :P)
