Pressure from Electronic Frontier Foundation on music-CD copy-protection firm SunnComm appears to have paid off. Responding to EFF's open letter, the company has set out how it intends to end security problems with its MediaMax CD copy-protection software used on music CDs by a number of indie record labels.

Although this is the same software in which security issues were identified on some Sony BMG CDs - but seemingly resolved with an updater - it is NOT the software over which there has been so much Sony-related publicity, First4Internet's XCP, which uses root-kit technology.
