The creators of the famous SafeDisc copyprotection, Macrovision, now come with a protection method to prevent us from backing up audio CD's.
Macrovision's SafeAudio toolkit provides copy-protection process automation and control software to support rapid deployment of the SafeAudio technology in the market. While we are still in beta testing with the SafeAudio technology itself, we felt it was important to anticipate the needs of the CD replicators and the music labels. They want to know that the ultimate technology will be available throughout the world and will be transparent to the manufacturing process. The proliferation of commercial grade CD-recordables and inexpensive CD-R media has become a major concern to the music labels. |
We believe that SafeAudio provides an opportunity for the music industry to regain the billions of dollars lost to unauthorized casual copying. We are eager to start our beta trials and to get the technology into the hands of the music labels for evaluations,'' commented Bill Krepick, President and COO of Macrovision.
SafeDisc (2) is probably a very succesfull copy protection, for most CD Freaks it's already very hard to backup CD's protected by SafeDisc 2. SafeDisc makes it at least hard to copy CD's We just can't deny that !
