I found this on alt.2600 and thought I'd pass it along - hopefully some

CD CRACKING--Technology buffs have cracked music publishing giant Sony
Music's elaborate disc copy-protection technology with a decidedly
low-tech method: scribbling around the rim of a disk with a felt-tip
marker. Internet newsgroups have been circulating news of the
discovery for the past week, and in typical newsgroup style, users
have pilloried Sony for deploying "hi-tech" copy protection that can
be defeated by paying a visit to a stationery store.
Sony did not immediately return calls seeking comment.
