SONY REFUNDS
Music fans who bought CDs with Sony BMG Music Entertainment's controversial XCP copy control software are going to get refunds. Last week saw the successful conclusion of a class action lawsuit that was brought against the company after it included invasive and potentially dangerous 'root kit' copy-protection software on an estimated 15 million music CDs. Anyone who purchased one of the XCP-protected discs can apply for either a cash payment of about ?4.00, plus one free album download, or for three album downloads, whichever they prefer, and the application page link is here:
