DJ releases blank CD-R

You didn't even mention that Sparklehorse, David Lynch and Danger Mouse worked together to create this collaborative effort featuring all original music and guest appearances by many vocalists. The music is the companion to the limited edition, hand numbered book featuring David Lynch's photographs. So, you're not really just buying a CD, you're getting a full color limited run book.

Does Cosgrove-Hall Productions or Themes Television have grounds to sue this guy

DRM digital Rights Management part of the DMCA legislation that was created by the recording industry and media companies is one of the WORST examples of corruption and bribery in our governments history.

I'm really quite surprised than CNN posted any news at all that might link to the DMCA as if the public had any real knowledge or input in this legislation it would never have passed and any lawmaker who voted for it would lose the next election.

The DMCA has been used to
Prevent refilling of ink cartridges for printers.
Deny Blind people from access to ebooks
Prevent Auto repair shops from working on late model cars
Teenagers singing "Winter Wonderland" being censored off YouTube!
It was even invoked against the famous Obama "Hope" picture!

Apple owners, Apple uses DRM to:
lock iPhones to AT&T and Apple's iTunes App Store
prevent recent iPods from syncing with software other than iTunes
Apple requires iPod accessory vendors to use a licensed "authentication chip" in order to make accessories to access certain features on newer iPods and iPhones this means a third party cannot make accessories for Ipods without paying Apple for the chip(and guess who gets to pay for this?)

It's hard to find an area of our lives that the DMCA hasn't NEGATIVELY impacted, yet it passed through a bought and paid for congress with little attention from the media that paid for it.

Thanks Trollicus! I to am surprised that CNN had the guts to publish anything related to the negative impact of the DMCA!

A Big Thank you to CNN and Wes Finley-Price for having the guts to publish! I hope the people who did this don't lose their jobs!

It's nice to see that normal people will oppose the corruption of our government the DMCA represents and that someone will find a creative way to point out the absurd or EVIL nature of it.

Thanks Danger Mouse! For having the guts to put the DMCA on the spot! I have no idea what kind of music you play, but I'm willing to pay for it because I'm an American who believes in freedom and the constitution.

I really enjoyed the song Jaykob to bad about the stupid DMCA thing. It's surprising we don't hear more about the DMCA opposition in the news. Thanks DM! keep on rolling out the music sticking up for freedom and look forward to seeing you in concert.

The release is not just about the music (created in collaboration between Danger Mouse and Sparklehorse, plus many other artists). The project is an all encompassing audio/visual project wholly representative of the 3 main artists (Danger Mouse, Sparklehorse, and David Lynch). There's an art installation of the photos and music being hosted in LA at the end of the month. Plus, the photobook is limited to 5,000 copies. So, yes, people will buy this record even though it has (intentionally) leaked. I'm just sad it will not be released on vinyl because the album is tremendous.

I really enjoyed some of the tracks off this album. Nice going DM hope to see you in concert soon.

cute.

in response to the word used in the article [ towards the end in blue font... ] the word " FREELY " – tell me, (anyone)...what is " free ? "
...because I am VERY confused ; O.

I don't get it. Imagine you are still in school and wrote a report on the civil war for history class. How would you feel if I 'borrowed' it, made a copy, turned it in first, and got an 'A'.

While I agree that DMCA is a really stupid approach, artists, authors, software writers, and engineers deserve credit (and cash) for their work.
