New Copy Protected CDs

[Greg12]

phillips complainted about them using the CDDA Logo on copy protected disks.

I just bought a new cd player cause it had a tv tuner in it and it said it plays CDDA White Book CD's and that cd's with copy protection may not play.

There's only one true weapon against piracy... a lower price.

They would rather spend millions of dollars on copy-protection schemes than to just lower the price.

If a new CD cost the same (or a dollar or so more) as a blank CD-R... Why go through all the trouble?

It defies logic.

EXACTLY! People will always find a way to make a copy. This new copy protection is BS, what a waste of money. Many have already mentioned very simple methods of bypassing copy protected CD's. If the price was lower people would buy. The problem is the recording industry has to take their piece of the pie.

It's funny the article talked about Macrovision for DVD protection. It's too bad that doesn't work!

Maybe they need to be purchased and returned as defective when you can't rip them to your mp3 player, etc. That might make a larger statement.

Just be sure to make that stand-alone copy first.


Oops, the RIAA will be after me now for that one. That should be legal anyway since you made the copy for yourself when you actually owned the CD.
