I think doing business in the music industry makes you stupid.
Suing those who expose CD copy protection flaws?!?

No, Congress passing laws allowing companies to sue you for pressing the shift key is stupid.
Someone on Slashdot made an interesting point: "Pressing the shift key is not a violation of the DMCA. Telling someone to press the shift key is a violation of the DMCA."
Shall we buy a new guitar?
Shall we drive a more powerful car?
i didn't read the article, but i'm assuming the subject says it all ... what's the point of cd protection then? why doesn't the RIAA sue the people who made "uncopyable" cd technology? wasn't that their job? obviously they failed.
maybe RIAA should go after microsoft because windows uses the shift key (and so does every other computer).
soon the RIAA will go after everyone who has a sound card and a line-out on their cd player
SunnComm, which trades on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board, said it has lost more than $10 million of its market value since Halderman published his report.
Pretty shaky company if any kid with a rudimentary knowledge of the Windows operating system can cost them $10 million...
Yeah, from 15 cents a share to 12.Originally posted by kb0wwp

Man the music industry is the joke and also the company, which makes the CD protection bull crap. With just a line-in on the sound card, you could capture all the songs that you want.
haha true enough. I was thinking about that the other day, not that i was actually going to do it tho
sueing is part of america....
whose the winner? consumers? i think not
more people should think like that."In America today, scientists shouldn't have to fear legal action for publishing the truth. Based on the apparent weakness of its technology, perhaps SunnComm should be hiring more Princeton computer scientists, instead of threatening to sue them."
well since im in the music buisness (sorta), i've learned how hard it is to earn the slightest cent... ill admit i have a bunch of burnt cds but i buy the independent labels that no one will probably see on mtv or vh1 hence no cd copy, dupe, etc. ... anyway independent ones arent sounding too bad of an idea cuz of all this cd and corporate bull...

man, its always a good habit to TURN OFF Auto-Run in the device manager if you ever plan on burning CD's...
in fact, it used to be a common trouble-shooting practice for us at Creative Labs to tell customers to turn it off...
SHIFT Key does the same thing.

It is not enough to merely touch the face of god; you also must open your eyes so that you may see your palm.
