OpenMG™ Jukebox Software Instructions
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.
OpenMG Jukebox software enables you to import digital audio files by
downloading audio files from EMD services over digital networks, such as the
Internet. You can record audio CDs, which are encoded in ATRAC3 format, onto
your computer’s hard drive. OpenMG Jukebox converts your existing MP3 and
WAV format audio files into OpenMG format. (WAV format audio files are
converted into ATRAC3 format, and MP3 format audio files are converted into
ATRAC3 format or changed into OpenMG MP3 format.)
Registering OpenMG Jukebox
The OpenMG registration icon will appear in the Program Menu. Connect to
the Internet, minimize the browser window, and then double-click the icon to
register your software. When you register, you will be directed to the Electronic
Music Distribution (EMD) service Web site, where you can download software
that enables you to access Internet music.
