    hi everyone

    did you read about what sony is planning......i hope daemon tools staff can fix that 8)


    "The application replaces serialisation codes on stickers applied on retail games boxes, saving games publishers material and handling costs, and users inconvenient manual input. Each disc is assigned a unique invisible identification number. The code is read by the computer drive and initiates an automatic access to online gaming. As the technology is backwards compatible, virtually any computer drive can read the data. Ensuring that codes are safe, Electronic CD-Key lets the widespread method of unauthorised access to codes in stores come to an end, as they can't be seen anymore. JoWooD Productions Software AG will be the first games publisher to apply this convenient technology to the global games release "Soldiers" which will hit stores in May.

    SecuRelease discs include a unique identification number which is read automatically during installation of the game and then inserted into the software. "Because users are registered, any unauthorised distribution will be identifiable in case software appears on the Internet," says Sony DADC's Product Manager Bernhard Wiesinger. "SecuRelease is the basis for Sony DADC's 'full-life-cycle protection' solution offering a seamless and simple distribution of protected pre-release versions!" Currently, there is no comparable product available which offers publishers this kind of protection for pre-releases. "

      ...

      There should be a rather easy fix for that if you really want to beat that protection .. (I am not really that intrested in that as I just want no-cd patches or emulation for my games.. Its too much work to keep track of my cd's)..

      Go out and buy 2 games.. install them and see where the change is on a byte wise compare..

        as i scan this, this is their main point... pre-release protection. I seriously doubt this will give any serious headaches to any crackers worth their salt. And for all of us others... can't see the significance, really. And it even won't protect against keygens as these will then just have to be more 'intrusive' to the software (see above, under 'crackers' ). And it's still not got anything to do with imaging or burning copies.
