I recently saw a news release that read:
Memory Stick PRO format will be equipped with MagicGate?, a copyright protection technology that consists of authentication and encryption technologies. The authentication technology ensures that protected content is only transferred between compliant devices and media, and that protected content is recorded and transferred in an encrypted format to prevent unauthorized copying or playback.
This sounds a lot like. If you want to use the memory stick you'll have to buy all your MP3's from us or they won't work muah ha ha ha ha and we can charge whatever we want for the sticks, the songs, the movies everything and you can't do anything about it muah ha ha ha
