'Copy-Proof' CDs Cracked with 99-Cent Marker Pen

Technology buffs have cracked music publishing giant Sony Music's elaborate disc copy-protection technology with a decidedly low-tech method: scribbling around the rim of a disk with a felt-tip marker.

LOL, pirates used to stick their tongue out at sony before, but this is just a slap to the face rude. heheh
 
Good, it serves them right.

I'll readily admit that downloading mp3's from kazaa is stealing, but they've gone too far with this latest copy protection scheme. If I buy a cd and I can't stick it in my computer to play it without the machine going into convulsions then the record industry deserves to have their property stolen. Retards.

We should all buy stock in Sharpie 'cause I'm sure they're about to sell out of every marker in existence.
 
I think this is hella funny. I mean first I was thinking crack as in damage then I thought about it and said you dumbasss. K. Cool.

Not the readers, the poster should though 😀 we already know. Well i do. Its nice to hear people are knowing about it though now, but who really cares about the cd's that are locked anyway! :Q
 
I know this is a repost but this can never be repeated enough!!

ROTFLMAOPIMPLOL!!!
Haaa haaa haaaa haaaaahhhaaaaa!
Millions of dollars later!!! hahahahahaaahhhaaaaomg!!
 
I am not sure I would want to be on the engineering team that came up with this scheme to prevent copying......🙂
 
In the ongoing battle between the copyright police and file sharers, it's pretty obvious that whichever side has the most clever people will win. The RIAA/MPAA might as well just raise the white flags now. They've yet to come up with anything that has not been circumvented on day 1. It's no longer just about intellectual property, trying copy protection in a world filled with hackers is like waving a red flag in front of a bull. You're just begging to get gored in the ass.
