I made a prediction that in 2 years CDs will be unrippable. The Content Industry is taking step to ensure that holds up legally.

I know that this does not bother some people because they do not use computers or other components (Musiccast, Fireball) to store and manage their music. BUT doing so does have many advantages and it is an innovation that can potentially change the way we listen to music by giving us maximum flexibility with our music. Not to mention, if you use the right methods and equipment you do not lose any audio quality.
For example when I made a trip to Costa Rica I had access to all of my CDs from my music server at home via the Internet. Sure the music was compressed on the fly so that the trip from home to Costa Rica could be done in a timely manner but I doubt I heard a loss of quality due to the computer speakers that I was using.
Anyways read the article and tell me what you think.
