Antonio Ibáñez de Alba, a Spanish scientist, has announced a new compact disc anti-piracy system, reports EFE in today’s El Mundo.
The inventor patented the “Sed-CD” system three years ago in Madrid. Sed-CD works by using two microchips, one contained in the CD player, and another glued onto or embedded in the surface of the disc.
“The microchips exchange information, which, if correct, allows activation of the player and makes listening possible. On the other hand, if it is not valid, the microchip self-destructs and consequently makes reproduction of that CD totally impossible,” says the scientist.
