SonyBMG plans to begin the new year with a batch of freshly pressed music cds
that will feature copy protection technology from First 4 Internet. First 4
Internet's technology encodes the music files with a heavy encryption that
allows standard cd players to playback the music. There are also additional
data files on the CD that further enhance encryption. All of which is easily
bypassed by simply holding down the shift button when you load the CD into a PC.
