"Record companies retain CD protection right


Stephanie Bodoni, London - 06 June 2004

The court ruled that EMI, Sony, BMG and Universal Music had the right to produce anti-copying CDs, delivering a blow to Test-Achats, which had collected more than 200 complaints from disgruntled individuals. . . ."
