    I found this on their web site. Take This as you like:

    Q:Does Yepp play MP3 songs that are illegally available over the Internet?

    A: The Yepp currently has no method to detect whether an MP3 file was downloaded from a legal or illegal web site, just as a paper copier machine is not able to differentiate between text that is being copied with or without the consent of its copyright owners. Through its SecuMAX(TM) technology, Samsung is forging ahead with ways to help protect copyrighted music and it will also participate in RIAA's SDMI initiative to identify a solution to this problem.


    Q: How much will Yepp cost?

    A: Pricing has not yet been determined, but it can be expected that pricing will not be far from the $199 retail price mark.
