Making and Detecting Illegal Music

Demona writes "Long-time music aficionado Dave Marsh has an article in the latest edition of Counterpunch entitled Sampler's Delight. Giving rave reviews to "Nothing to Fear", the latest in a long line of so-called illegal music, he also describes a "'major label waveform CD database,' which is capable of recognizing materials allegedly owned by the record label cartel." This database is allegedly why a UK pressing plant rejected the initial attempt at publishing "Nothing To Fear", which is comprised almost entirely of sampled material."

I don't support the RIAA. I haven't bought a CD in years. I do as much as I can to spread awareness about why RIAA is evil. I think you would find many other slashdotters do the same.

Depends on the "it"

it matches the signal from the music at certain points

Clarification: Gracenote's CDDB 2 may do this. CDDB 1 (used by FreeDB) was based solely on track lengths.
