Sony settles ‘rootkit’ class action lawsuit | CNET News.com
> Sony BMG has struck a deal with the plaintiffs in a class action lawsuit over copy-restriction software it used in music CDs, according to a settlement document filed at a New York court Wednesday.
If you were affected by the Sony BMG rootkit, you could get either 3 downloaded albums from a list of 200, or $7.50 and 1 free downloaded album from iTMS per CD you bought. Not quite there, but it’s nice that they at least are giving something back after breaking loads of systems.
