Labels to dampen CD burning?

The recording industry is testing technology that would prevent consumers from making copies of CD “burns”, a piracy defense that could put some significant new restrictions on legally purchased music.

SunnComm said a version of its new “secure burning” technology is already being tested by BMG Music Group, the world’s fifth-largest record label and the most aggressive to date in pushing CD copy protection schemes in the United States. Macrovision’s version is expected to be ready in the next few months.
