Well it looks like Sony is finally fessing up and offering to swap out the CDs and is going to have an uninstallation program to remove the software.
Quote:
Sony BMG, after announcing a recall of some 4.7 million CDs with the software on Wednesday, said on Friday consumers could mail their CDs to the company, and they would receive a new unprotected CD in return.
Pending the processing of the exchange program, consumers would also receive an e-mail with details of a Web site where they could download the music tracks as unprotected MP3 files.
Details of the swap program can be found on http://cp.sonybmg.com/xcp/. Music CDs with the copy-protection software can be identified by a web address containing the letters XCP printed on the back of the box.
Last week the music publisher said it would do anything possible make amends with its customers who were outraged when the first viruses were discovered.
