CATCH IT WHILE YOU CAN

The BBC that DVDs that self-destruct within 48 hours are to be launched next month by Flexplay Technologies. The DVDs won’t do anything as exciting as exploding. Instead they slowly turn black two days after they first come into contact with air, meaning that they can no longer be read by the laser equipment within the DVD player. The attraction is that they can be sold cheaply in place of rented films. However, the BBC points out that this technology could prove a cheap source of material for pirates as they do not have any extra copy-protection compared to ordinary DVDs.

No comments:

All comments must be moderated by a member of the IPKat team before they appear on the blog. Comments will not be allowed if the contravene the IPKat policy that readers' comments should not be obscene or defamatory; they should not consist of ad hominem attacks on members of the blog team or other comment-posters and they should make a constructive contribution to the discussion of the post on which they purport to comment.

It is also the IPKat policy that comments should not be made completely anonymously, and users should use a consistent name or pseudonym (which should not itself be defamatory or obscene, or that of another real person), either in the "identity" field, or at the beginning of the comment. Current practice is to, however, allow a limited number of comments that contravene this policy, provided that the comment has a high degree of relevance and the comment chain does not become too difficult to follow.
