Microsoft tells music biz to 'back lock-down CD standard'

The Evil Empire strikes again ...

Many independent labels are rumoured to be terrified by the proposal, our sources suggest, which could grant Microsoft the mandate on CD copy protection and, if it is accepted by the industry, potentially increase the costs of CD production.

And they should be scared - in fact, so should the "big" labels.

Gives three weeks to make up mind...
