Michael Jackson's New Music Won't Play On Your PC

 

Michael Jackson's new single 'You Rock My World' has been recorded and is ready for release according to Sony, but don't bother guying it if you want to play it on your PC.

In an attempt to stop the song being made into an MP3 and illegally traded the company has copy protected it and it will only play on normal CD players, not on PC's.

It is thought that even the promo copies of the CD were copy protected.

  bah yea right  
 
I dunno what form of copy protection they are using... i'm assuming it's the white noise protection so that digital copies sound crap. That's been cracked about 2 months ago already i remember reading. If it's something else, it'll be cracked too..
I spose tho the point is that any protection will increase profit to some measure...

just because you cant play it in your cd-rom doesnt mean you cant make the cd into mp3's.

  Can be copied anyway  
 
It could be copied by running through you pc from your stereo via the soundcard, or by optical cable on the soundcard to you minidisc player.

It only takes a few ocpies on the net to be spread.

Anyway, who cares about that Kiddie Fiddler
