A patent pending system permits recording artists to freely distribute their works without fear of illegal mass production. "It is unbreakable," said the inventor, "unlike any other product out there.
November 1, 2005 (Press Release) --
Protecting music copyrights from thieves and saving the recording industry billions of dollars in lost profits is the goal of the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) and an inventor with a patent pending technology. Music Sentinel(am) is the world's first encryption technology for digital downloads and ADs sold through stores. At the same time, it can be used to promote the artist.
Inventor Albert Chosky said Music Sentinel permits copyright holders to freely distribute their works without fear of illegal mass production. "It is an audio media protection and promotion system that does what other technologies have failed to do," he said.
The developer says existing protection methods inevitably fail.
"Current protection schemes are either impractical, too expensive, too restricting or just don't work. Music Sentinel takes the sane approach to music protection," Chosky said, "by eliminating the need for costly drawn-out court battles or imposing impractical worldwide standards and laws, and by keeping complete control in the hands of the artists themselves."
"Other online music protection systems have failed because they try to do the same impossible thing--stop hundreds of millions of Internet users, in nearly every country across the globe, from downloading songs. Music Sentinel doesn't attempt to stop Internet file sharing; it stops the damage done by Internet file sharing," he said.
The system protects intellectual property rights as it promotes the artist's work through embedded order forms and promotional material inside a CD or audio download.
Mr. Chosky said he wants to market Music Sentinel to major industry players because "recording companies and artists need my technology," he said, "and frankly, I need the sale."
Recorded material protected with Music Sentinel can be burned to a data CD for computer playback, but cannot be burned to an audio CD.
"Some 94% of the music downloaded online and burned to audio ADs, is done with the intent of listening to it away from the computer", said Chosky. "This is another big incentive for a listener of a Music Sentinel protected song to press the 'buy it now' button."
According to the RIAA, the music industry loses about $4.2 billion to piracy worldwide each year, or millions of dollars a day. That means musicians, singers, songwriters and producers don’t get the royalties and fees they’ve earned, and their reputations may be damaged by the inferior quality of pirated copies sold to the public.
Breaking into the music business is no picnic. Piracy makes it tougher to survive and even tougher to break through. As recording artist "Tool" noted, "Basically, it's about music -- if you didn't create it, why should you exploit it? True fans don't rip off their artists."
