A small amount of good news. Recently, "alternative" pop star and former
Neighbours starlet Natalie Imbruglia was the first artist to release a
copy-protected CD which didn't work with (most) computers (or DVD players or
some CD players). Not because she's a firm believer in the rightness of the
War On Copying, mind you, but because her corporate owners/operators at BMG
are, and chose her new album as the début of their new technology.
Their bet that only a small, easily dismissable minority of hardcore
Napatistas would complain didn't pan out however, and after mass returns of
the CDs, BMG have backed down, and are
offering to exchange the CDs for unprotected ones.
Of course, the war isn't won yet; but at least it's not lost.
