Cactus Data Shield Tries Again

autocracy writes: "Midbar, an Israeli company that developed the breakage of standard called Cactus says that they have released more than 10 million CDs to the U.S. and Europe. They now claim that there will be no issues playing it but you will lose quality if you try to copy. I'm just wondering how it is that you can play it on a system at perfect quality, but when you copy it things don't sound right. Do they not know about optical output? Lame quotes including comments by the makers of how this is a 'proven technology' can be found at C|NET."

    The Recording Companies are desperately trying to maintain control of having people buy music. It's a loosing battle

    Would that be a battle in which the contenders "let loose or release" something? Or perhaps you meant a losing battle, one which will not be won.

    I get your point, but to me I don't really equate manipulative with intelligence.

    You're right. It should have been marked "Offtopic," which is what whining about moderation is, by definition.

    She knew enough to marry the right guy at the right time! Now she has all the time in the world to pal around and study the Kabala with Madonna, act, and be a fasion superhero, all while being a (self-described) Buddhist-Scientologist-Christian.
