  Copy-Protected CDs Not Compatible
Time: 00:05 EST/05:05 GMT | News Source: Associated Press | Posted By: Robert Stein

Makers of a Charley Pride CD, the first known copy-protected compact disc released in the United States, have agreed to warn consumers that it's not compatible with computer CD-ROM drives or DVD players. The agreement settles a lawsuit filed in a Marin County court by Karen DeLise, who was upset after she discovered her new "Charley Pride — A Tribute to Jim Reeves" CD contained a copy protection scheme from SunnComm Inc. that prevented the disc from being played in her PC. The technology deters consumers from swapping music over the Internet or making unlimited copies of a CD for car stereos or portable MP3 music players.
