SunnComm MediaMax CD-3 to appear on the market soon

About two weeks ago we reported that SunnComm, developer of the audio protection that never really hit off, Mediacloq had developed a new product called MediaMax CD-3. Of course development is one, getting it on the CDs is two.

But it seems that SunnComm has succeeded in selling their protection as the company has now released a press release that its technology has now been adopted by several manufacturing plants and will be used by many of the major record labels:


Sample copies of MediaMax technology are currently being tested by most of the major labels," says William H. Whitmore, SunnComm's chief operating officer. "We have received a green light to proceed with implementation of our product into the glass mastering and manufacturing phase and are preparing for the final mass distribution of our proprietary technology into CD replication facilities throughout the world. This very important and essential next step of testing manufactured MediaMax CDs will prove how reliable and easy our technology is to implement into the present CD mastering and manufacturing process."

According to Peter H. Jacobs, SunnComm's president, "The mastering and manufacturing process should be completed very shortly. Then, we will deliver the MediaMax CDs to major record companies for them to complete their final pre-order testing phase. We have simultaneously initiated licensing negotiations with all interested record labels."


I guess we should all be looking forward to see this technology and find methods to make backups the way we want it. This means we want unrestricted MP3 files that can play everywhere, and not restricted WMA files.

"But it seems that SunnComm has succeeded in selling their protection as the company has now released a press release that its technology has now been adopted by several manufacturing plants and will be used by many of the major record labels." tut, tut. I don't admire your comprehension skills. Nowhere does that pr say that they have suceeded in selling anything. It just says that some labels may begin testing the product. But don't worry about that. The whole pr is just some fluff to divert attention from the fact that they are unable to deliver a form 10 filing satisfactory to the sec, after 2 years of trying. They are broke and survive by pumping their stock using exagerated prs and then selling into the spikes. They rely on investors taking their prs at face value rather than noting that almost every pr they have issued to date has been just fluff and not played out as claimed.

Message to CD Freaks webmasters: Every time you put up a story about copy protection, automatically generate a reply saying "If it can be played back, it can be copied" or "What man creates, man can crack"
