Caveat Lector: Beastie Boys Evil

"It seems that Capitol Records has some sort of new copy protection system, that automatically, silently, installs 'helpful' copy protection software on MacOS and Windows as soon as you insert the CD into default systems. I’m not sure exactly what it does yet, but I am sure regreting actually purchasing said media now… they don’t deserve my money if they choose to pull stupid stunts like this. Installing software without your permission sounds like viral malware behaviour to me. I certainly hope the AV companies put signatures into their products for this crap." [Security Focus, via Furdlog]

Noted for when patrons complain that the CD they checked out from your library messed up their computer. Yeah, this is definitely the way for the music industry to win back already angry customers.

New Beastie Boys 06/14/2004 04:08 PM

Thanks to the wonders of the internet, a couple weeks ago I got a copy of To The 5 Boroughs, the new Beastie Boys album. It's not much of a growth for them, sounding a lot like their previous record Hello Nasty. Most of the songs are somewhat forgettable, but MCA gets props for the following rhyme in It Takes Time to Build:

We got a president we didn't elect,
The Kyoto Treaty he decided to neglect...

I never thought environmental treaties would make it into mainstream hip-hop songs, but the Beasties proved me wrong.

AP - The members of Beastie Boys are flashing liquor and cash while betting on a street-level parlor game — with a Jewish twist. Instead of a 40-ounce brew, Adrock throttles a bottle of Manischewitz wine. In lieu of dice, MCA tosses a dreidel as Mike D hangs back with a gold Kiddush cup. Moments later, MCA, the band's self-styled Kung Fu master, chops through a thick stack of matzo bread like Bruce Lee busting through three-ply mahogany.

What? You thought I was selling my older hardware for the fun of it? Things I love about Kwyjibo, my new Sony Clie UX50: size, shape, weight, screen, features, functionality, convenience, power cradle. Things I don't love about Kwyjibo: (1) it relies on the Sony Memory Suck; (2) No keyboard navigation; (3) unmanageable USB port cover; (4) no way to flip between portrait / landscape mode; (5) deep reliance on ass-nasty QuickTime codecs; and (6) poor out-of-the-box Outlook integration. Even with these grievances aired, I must admit that I've been quite pleased with "it" so far. Then again, who's ever completely happy with their PDA?...

Now Books Can Have Copy Protection Too


Now Books Can Have Copy Protection Too 12/10/2003 03:27 AM
While the publishing industry has always had an uneasy relationship with the photocopier, they've pretty much accepted the fact that you simply can't copy protect printed materials. That may be changing. Ricoh has announced that they've created a copier that will block the copying of confidential documents. The way it works is that when the original documents are printed, they need to include special, barely visible dots, which can be understood by the copier as copy protection. But, only on that copier. How far do you think this idea is going to go? Here's a copier that actually offers less functionality and requires people to do something extra when printing out documents, while making sure that the only copiers around are equipped with this special anti-copying technology. Otherwise, the person who tries to copy a document and can't will simply walk down the hall (or down the street to a Kinko's) and copy it somewhere else. This is like putting weak copy protection on a CD and then saying "well, the copy protection only works if you use these special CD players."

Continuing efforts by the content industry to make sure people can do less with content than they could before, Microsoft is releasing new copy protection technology today. It still amazes me that an entire industry could be so focused on preventing people from doing what they want. In other news - just not reported yet - it's likely that plenty of people have already figured out how to break Microsoft's new copy protection scheme.

One More Reason Why Copy Protection
Isn't The Issue


One More Reason Why Copy Protection
Isn't The Issue
04/07/2005 12:55 PM
A recurring theme over the past month or so as many folks seem to be bringing back the "content is king" meme, is that all of these broadcast content creation companies are completely missing the point. On both the inter net and on mobile phones, people are using them to communicate, not to passively consume content. The Guardian is now running an article from someone who just recognized this. He has a TV, so he doesn't really want more TV content via his internet connection. He wants to be able to c ommunicate with friends and family -- which means creating his own content and sharing other content. This is the main reason why all of these attempts at copy protection and locking up content behind walls is misguided online. All it does is make the content that much less valuable, because it can't be discussed and it can't be shared. Trying to copy protect content is thinking about how to make the internet act more like a TV -- but we already have TVs. The internet and mobile phones are about communicating and user generated content. Copy protection doesn't help anyone communicate -- it just makes it more difficult.

This one is just bizarre. In a recent study, about copy protection, a research firm is claiming that "consumers are not overwhelmingly antagonistic" towards copy protection. Even if this was true, it wouldn't prove that copy protection is good for business. Consumers may simply be ignorant about copy protection and what it means for them and for future offerings. However, the real issue is that the actual stats don't seem to support the conclusion at all. The study compared how many people would buy a "copy once" CD at a lower price, and found that 33% of those who don't rip CDs would buy the cheaper copy protected CD. That means 67% of those who don't copy CDs wouldn't buy a copy protected CD even if it were noticeably cheaper. That is, even though it provides no direct benefit to them (they don't rip, so why should they care), they still won't buy it. That certainly makes it sound like users are quite antagonistic to copy protection. Even those who it won't directly impact don't want it at a cheaper price. How can anyone claim this means users aren't antagonistic to the idea with a straight face when the data clearly shows the opposite?
