Copyright protection The Music Clip Player has some restrictions on recording and playback to protect copyrights. For details, see "Restrictions on the copyright protection by OpenMG" on page 29. What is OpenMG? OpenMG is a copyright protection technology used when recording and playing back audio data on computers. OpenMG encrypts and saves digital audio data on a computer's hard disk, and allows the audio data to be played back on that computer only, protecting it from being illegally delivered over a network. Transfer of sound data from your computer to the Music Clip Player (Check in/out) The supplied application software (OpenMG Jukebox) enables you to transfer the sound data stored on your computer's hard disk to the Music Clip Player (Check out) and transfer it from the Music Clip Player to your computer (Check in). Check in/out restrictions: - You cannot check out the same song more than three times (excluding certain songs). However, if you transfer a checked out song back to your computer (Check in), you can then check out the song again. - You cannot check in songs checked out to the Music Clip Player to any computer other than the computer used for the Check out. For details, see "Terminology" on page 31. Restrictions on sound data Some sound data is distributed with restrictions on recording or playback of the data to maintain of its holders' copyright.
