Sony & Audible Magic to co-operate

Written by Jari Ketola @ 31 May 2004 13:00

Content-filtering company Audible Magic announced on Friday that they have struck a deal with Sony Music. Sony will provide Audible Magic with digital fingerprints of their music, which will be used to improve Audible Magic's antipiracy technology. The technology identifies and blocks songs transferred online illegally.

Sony will also license Audible Magic's software for internal use. The companies will, in addition, work together on an antipiracy program targeted at universities.
