The Null Device

Proprietary format good, open format bad: Here comes another CD copy protection scheme, which hopes to make CDs you cannot rip into your MP3 collection for your own personal use. Somehow, this new system will redirect the felons who rip CDs to a site where they can download access-controlled Windows Media files. Of course, this locks you into Microsoft's platform, but then again, I suspect that this access control technique may not work on other platforms (such as Linux).
