Microsoft tells music biz to 'back lock-down CD standard' | The Register:

"Microsoft is attempting to force a last-minute pact with record labels over the future of copy-protected CDs, according to a letter seen by MusicAlly. The allegedly leaked document is purportedly from Alain Levy and David Munns of EMI via Tom Silverman of Tommy Boy Records, who was asked 'to reach out to the independent sector to achieve quick consensus on this issue [and] report back to Microsoft.'"
