MediaDefender Makes Both Legal and Illegal Downloads Available - Approaching the piracy issue from both ends makes things confusing

MediaDefender is an anti-piracy business that is known primarily because it’s hired by organizations like RIAA and MPAA to put illegal downloads online in order to trap people who are engaged in illegal filesharing. However, that’s not all that MediaDefender is about. They’re also in the business of offering legal P2P downloads. They’ve done this for awhile (they paired up with Sprint and Atlantic Records last year to offer branded P2P song downloads) but they appear to be getting more aggressive in moving forward with this part of the business. Perhaps that’s because their recent efforts at anti-piracy have taken down legitimate sites and placed them in a lot of hot water. Still, you have to wonder, how is a user supposed to know if a file placed online by MediaDefender is legal or illegal to download?

Sonic Focus: Digital music is just "good enough"

When one puts an iPod into a home theater system it's easy to hear the degradation in a digital audio file due to file compression when compared to a compact disc (CD) when the system is powered by a decent amplifier and a 7.1 speaker set. In some cases, a decent speaker might even highlight the noises that are caused by file compression. This is not a matter of how the digital music file is played, but how the file is being stored, or, being compressed. When consumers enjoy the high portability of their beloved music in a wide array of consumer electronic products, they are scarifying the "life" of music also. Driven by attempts to restore compressed digital music with vitality, Sonic Focus, a digital audio enhancement solution provider, which was recently merged by intellectual property (IP) and multimedia subsystem company ARC Internat
