Sony Music employs Magic touch to stop p2p theft
[Computer Buyer] 15:34
Sony and Audible Magic have announced an agreement to work together on a number of content management and anti-piracy initiatives.
Audible Magic is a company whose software can block the network transfer of copyrighted files and which also provides an anti-piracy information service.
Under the terms of the agreement, Sony Music will electronically register its new music with Audible Magic's CopySense (which can block unauthorised downloads of copyrighted songs on P2P networks). And Sony will also use Audible Magic's RepliCheck to generate 'audio fingerprints' that can frustrate CD piracy activity and help in the tracking of distributed Sony material.
Finally, the companies will also work together to support the Campus Action Network (CAN). This is an industry initiative that 'guides' colleges and universities to tackle illegal file-sharing.
'Audible Magic's pioneering work in the area of content identification, tracking, and protection has earned them a well-deserved reputation for excellence,' said Philip R. Wiser, Chief Technology Officer, Sony Music Entertainment, 'and we are delighted to be working with them on a wide range of innovative initiatives including our CAN and P2P filtering programs.'
Back in March, in the ongoing dispute over unauthorised music downloads, RIAA (the Recording Industry Association of America) recruited Audible Magic to its cause - RIAA seeks outside help in 'piracy' battle (http://www.pcpro.co.uk/news/news_story.php?id=54583).
Audible Magic's CopySense Network Appliance system was unveiled at the end of 2003 and the company describes it as 'the first product to give network administrators comprehensive control over P2P file trading'. Not only will the system identify and log P2P usage and potentially limit P2P traffic to a specified amount of bandwidth, it can establish rules for downloads or uploads from the network. Specifically, it is designed to block P2P transfers of copyrighted materials or even block all P2P transfers.
The company's CopySense technology has already been used in its RepliCheck anti-piracy information service, which targeted the CD replication market rather than network-based music downloading. The unrestricted duplication of copyrighted digital content, of course, is the central issue in the long-running legal tussle between content providers and the file swapping networks
