unless they plan to make hundreds of millions of CD players obsolete, i don't think this media giant is going to get their way!

 

[Darien]

I wonder what is to become of winamp...

<< AOL Time Warner's foray into CD copy protection would mark its biggest step yet into the arena known as digital rights management (DRM)--a broad label that covers a variety of technology aimed at preventing unauthorized copying. >>



This is exactly the reason we need to wake up the mass of ignorant drones who buy into the Time Warner/AOL hype machine!

Anyway, I've done my part by getting at least ten ppl I know to switch from AOL to better ISP's and to quit feeding into a company that's
involved in the condoning of personal freedoms!!!

[EDIT:]

Oh just a personal thought for AOL:

How about concentrating less on running the f'in world and more on the acquisition of a tech support team with an education > eighth grade !!

 

[ElFenix]

this all assumes lagging music sales has nothing to do with the tripe the major labels are pushing down the pipe.

 

[rudder]

what a waste of time and money. How long would it be after a copy proof cd reader was introduced before a copy proof cd reader emulator was on the net.

 

[kamiam]

just an FYI AOL hell has been lying about their ISP #'s...

...apparantly they have been including all the email alias's under each real user's acct, artifically inflating their overall customer base

 

[d1abolic]

Yaaahawwwnnn.

 

[XZeroII]

I suppose if they didn't have billions of dollars sitting around that they milked out of people who just don't know any better, I would say that they might be sincere but AOL just wants to get their hands into everything now. I STILL can't believe that the merger between AOL and Time Warner was approved. There must have been some SERIOUS bribes going on there because that should not have gone through.

 

[CKDragon]

Wow... AOL owns Winamp? Can't believe i didn't know that before... now I feel dirty.

[SagaLore]

Kind of funny since they give out billions of CDs a day with "1000 free hours". Are they afraid that people are copying them?

 

[chibchakan]

Die AOL Die :|

[sublime79]

Let them try.. I give them about 2 weeks if they do this before someone finds a way around it

They aquired nullsoft, who designs winamp. So far they haven;t really changed anything, which is good. But I wouldn't be suprised to find the next winamp loaded with spyware.

 

[TopGun]

Why do they even try anymore? It's like microsoft and all their attempts to prevent illegal installs of their software. It's cracked before it even hits the mainstream markets.

 

[bandXtrb]

Yeah, or I'd just use a WAV recorder, and use CD audio as the input.

 

[deftron]

As I read the first sentence...for a second..I thought they were talking about AOL copy-protecting
its CD's that everyone gets in the mail...


Bwhahah..

That would be funny
