I like this quote from sony best

In a nutshell, they integrated the source for LAME and other GPL programs, with their new copy protection.


Quote:

copy-protection software is "an important tool to protect our intellectual property rights and those of our artists."



hah, they protect their own property, by stealing other peoples.

What is sad about this is that anyone with half a brain can still easily copy the CD. All this bad press for technology that doesn't accomplish much of anything at all. There is no software that can keep people from recording sound, and if you can record sound you can pirate music. It's that simple, so why are they spending so much money and p*****g off their customers over this?
