Ross asked that I pass this on to the list as he can't post from work:

Hi all this is from todays ZDNET news about copy protection

"In the Macrovision test, copy-protected CDs were released without
notice to
consumers to ensure unbiased feedback, according to the company.
Macrovision,
which uses technology from Israel-based TTR Technologies, aims to
introduce
audible pops and buzzes into digital copies of CD tracks, without
altering
the
audio quality of the CD itself.  "

Well this is great maybe the general public will buy more experimental/
avant
electronic artists music now...he he

Or we are all out of a job.!
