OpenMG Jukebox
OpenMG Jukebox is a software application that utilizes Sony Corporation's copyright protection technology.
OpenMG Jukebox maintains the holder's copyrights by preventing unauthorized distribution of digital audio files.
OpenMG Jukebox software enables you to play and record audio CDs and import digital audio files while maintaining
the copyright information of the contents. When you record an audio CD with OpenMG Jukebox, it is encoded in
ATRAC3 format onto your notebook's hard drive. You can download digital audio files from Electronic Music
Distribution (EMD) services. The imported data can be played on your notebook or transferred to external devices or
media. OpenMG Jukebox converts your existing MP3 and WAV format audio files into OpenMG format (WAV format
audio files are converted into ATRAC3 format or changed into OpenMG MP3 format).
Your VAIO ® notebook ships with OpenMG Jukebox 2.0 installed. Other external dev ices that are compatible with
OpenMG Jukebox may contain an earlier v ersion of the software (Version 1.0, 1.1, or 1.2). Do not install an earlier
v ersion of OpenMG Jukebox on your notebook, as this may cause the software to work improperly or damage your
audio files.
