Features of copyright protection by
OpenMG

The OpenMG Jukebox software features OpenMG, a copyright protection technology
developed by Sony to protect music copyrights.

OpenMG uses a high-level cryptographic technology to protect music contents with
computers.

Users should be notified of the restrictions mentioned below.

• Music recorded on the hard disk using the OpenMG Jukebox software cannot be

played if copied onto other computers.

• Installation of the same OpenMG Jukebox software onto other computers is not

permitted.

• Usage Rules for using music

If Usage Rules are included in the music by way of the copyright holder or the
distributor, operation wilt be restricted to use permitted by the Usage Rule. For
music, such as compact discs, that does not contain a Usage Rule, the Default Usage

Rule of SDMI will be followed. This Default Usage Rule states that one file can be
checked out up to three times only.

• On music contents that are not compatible with the OpenMG Jukebox software

Under the supervision of SDMI, this software prohibits recording of music with a
copy prohibition signal.

This software was developed in accordance with the current arrangement between
Sony and SDMI. If this arrangement is modified in the future, some of the software
functions may become unavailable. Sony may offer an upgrade kit in this case at
additional user expense.
