Macrovision to Offer AAC Support on Locked CDs Later this Year
Posted by James Fee in "NEWS" @ 06:00 PM
"Copy protection provider Macrovision is sufficiently confident that it will be able to incorporate FairPlay support into its CDS-300 copy control that is has begun telling customers that it will add iTunes and iPod support to its software in Q4. According to mailings sent out with the company's CDS-300 version 7 beta release, "support for iPod and iTunes... will be made available in a Q4 update". The blurb claims that support will be enabled "via Apple FairPlay". That suggests that Macrovision has indeed managed to license Apple's DRM technology - or is sufficiently confident of doing so that it can provide a timeframe for the code's adoption."
