LIMITED-PLAY DVDS TAKE A STEP CLOSER

 

SpectraDisc, a US optical electronics manufacturer,

has been issued a US Patent for its limited-play

CD/DVD technology. Aimed directly at the rental

industry, SpectraDisc's new technology can create

DVDs with a special coating that causes them to

become unplayable after a set period of time. Such

is the functionality of its new coating,

SpectraDisc say their DVDs can be made to expire

anywhere within minutes or weeks of the DVD's

packaging being opened.

 

Oh bugger, another bloody format protection racket!
