If the industry is concerned about piracy, why do more cd releases not feature copy protection?
Is it too costly, or does it run afoul of back-up copy laws (a spare copy for personal use), or does it simply screw up so many computers and players, that the negative impact would outweigh the benefits?
(I assume most of the MP3's that are "shared" on the internet were themselves derived from legitimate original cd sources.)
