Installing BlueBeat player
A friend of mine, Gerd Leonard is consulting to a nifty little company down in LA that runs BlueBeat. The core technology of the company is the X1 player that secures music from ANY recording device on the computer. It is a well known flaw in ALL DRM systems that once the music is unlocked and playing over the computer, you can use any number of recorders to intercept the digital signal and make perfect digital copies. There are even recorders that will chop up an MP3 stream into it's component songs for you. So these guys intercept all the channels and disable these products. Just like some of the OS technologies that prevent debuggers to being attached to programs.
Because BlueBeat uses this higher level of protection, they can stream VERY high quality digital streams over the net to you. They stream 320k! No commercials! All you have to do is be willing to not steal it. I can live with that. Just sign up for an account and download the player, then reboot. I am having problems running it on two computers, I bet they lock it to one CPU. But the quality is great!
