Anti-Copying Firm Eases CD Controls
By Gwendolyn Mariano
Staff Writer, CNET News.com April 12, 2002, 5:15 PM PT SunnComm is adding a spoonful of sugar to its anti-copying medicine. The Phoenix, Ariz.-based copy-protection company has been the target of consumer outrage over its technology, which is designed to stop people from shifting music tracks from CDs to their computers. On Thursday, it offered a compromise, adding a feature that lets people e-mail songs from protected albums to family and friends. SunnComm said a file expires after the recipient listens to the song a certain number of times. Phil Benyola, a digital media research associate for investment company Raymond James Financial, said SunnComm is adding the service, PromoPlay, "as an incremental incentive" for the labels to choose SunnComm over other security companies. http://news.com.com/2100-1023-882221.html - js. |
