Sony’s CCCD exit
A quick post from Ottawa - the student summit + conference were great!
As mentioned on a number of sites (Furdlog, Slashdot, Joi Ito) + my mailbox (thanks, Niko and Alex!): Sony stops producing copy-controlled CDs.
That’s awesome news. Curious when they will throw OpenMG out of the window.
OpenMG will always remain, as it is the defacto file-format within Sony. If anything, OpenMG files will simply be DRM ‘duds’ - a DRM’d fie with no restrictions. :)

Hi Andreas! This is wonderful news! Does this mean that we can keep going with our creativity reproducing? Well, I just thought I would stop by and see your homepage. This is awesome! I would definitely use your presentation at Yale as well as a variety of information here for my teaching on technology and changing society! Nice meeting you, Andreas. –Chika
