Universal Music to Prevent Ripping to Xbox 12/21/2001, by Elizabeth
One of the best features of Xbox is the CD-Ripping ability. This gives us the opportunity to create our own soundtrack whilst spinning through the streets of London in PGR or grabbing massive air in Dave Mirra2. Why Universal have employed a copy protection scheme on new audio CD's to prevent us legitamately moving our own music to Xbox is beyond me....
Universal Music Group has employed a controversial copy protection scheme on a new audio CD that is designed to prevent the music on the CD from being played on game consoles, as well as being ripped to a hard drive. The company this week released a new soundtrack CD called "Fast & Furious -- More Music," the first CD to be released in the U.S. with copy protection features designed to prevent the music on the disc from being duplicated on another CD or ripped to a PC's/Xbox's hard drive.
Universal plans to employ copy-protection on all of its CDs by the middle of next year. It also plans to refund sales of the "Fast & Furious -- More Music" to retailers who are confronted by disgruntled consumers who don't read a warning sticker on the case advising them of the copy protection.
The news comes a month after the launch of Xbox, which has a popular soundtrack feature that enables gamers to rip their music CDs to the console's hard drive and play them back in certain games. Of course, those who download MP3s will still be able to burn them to CD-RWs and rip them onto Xbox's hard drive.
Universal publishes the work of some of the most popular artists in the business today, such as Afroman, Fuel, and Mary J. Blige. Lets see how this pans out through 2002. If people vote with their wallets, we'd suggest boycotting Universal Music Group until they reverse this ridiculous idea.
Now, we're not condoning the stealing of music, but if you have a ton of MP3's on your PC hard-drive, the simple way to transfer them to Xbox is by recording to CDRW, rather than CDR...

La verdad no entiendo, no están haciendo mas que llamar al pirateo, quieren que no rippees en la Xbox, cosa que MS permite en la Xbox para que juegues con tus propias musicas preferidas, si hacen eso, seremos incapaces de rippear CD originales, con lo que los hackear romperan esa protección y lo haremos por las malas... Que se jodan!! A ver si aprenden de una vez que cosas como esas llaman la atención del pirateo y la forma mas facil de arreglarlo es bajando los precios de los originales.
Cada dia tengo mas asco a esa gente...
