9/13 Are there any off-the-shelf DRM solutions? A friend of mine wants to
license his motivational material such that end-users will be able to
copy as many audio CDs as they have licenses, but will be prevented
from making more copies. I understand that no system is perfect;
he just wants something that will discourage less savvy users.
\- No. He must find new ways to motivate them. --parth vader
\_ You may remember me from such self-help videos as "Smoke Yourself
Thin" and "Get Confident, Stupid!"
\_ Point your friend toward non-technological tools to reduce
unwanted copying. Donate some of the profits to a relevant charity.
Include a small, unobtrusive, disclaimer at the end of each album
explaining what he does and that he supports himself this way.
Include a bit of text that encourages sharing, "but if you like it
please consider buying another copy as a gift for a friend."
Remind him that most of his customers are good people and will remain
so until he pisses them off. |
