	4C Entity - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The 4C Entity (which should be read out as "the four company entity") is a consortium formed by IBM, Intel, Matsushita and Toshiba to establish a common platform for digital rights management schemes.
		The 4C Entity has developed the Content Protection for Recordable Media (CPRM) and the Content Protection for Prerecorded Media (CPPM) schemes, sharing a lot of common features and therefore commonly known as CPPM/CPRM.
		The 4C Entity also made a proposal for a sequel to the content-scrambling system (CSS) named CSS2, however after the first version was broken, the proposal was withdrawn.

	Antipiracy battle moves to hardware Pt II - ZDNet UK News
		The 4C group sparked intense protest by taking their proposal to an industry standards group last year, asking that support for copyright protection be added directly into the rules dictating how data storage drives -- including PC hard drives -- talk to each other.
		Although the 4C proposal was ultimately withdrawn, another proposal that seeks much the same guards is being put to a vote by mail, with ballots to be tallied 2 April.
		Whatever the outcome, the 4C group is pressing forward with the licensing process for its technology, and portable devices with the copy protections built in could emerge as soon as this summer.

		However, Lotspiech and others in the 4C Entity have been working on a paper that should be viewable by the time you read this.
		The draft version of the 4C Entity's document that PC World obtained states repeatedly that CPRM is not intended for hard drives.
		Despite the 4C Entity's claims to the contrary, Hendrick also contends that CPRM content could cause backup problems for users and might even require new utilities.

	Intel and CPRM/CPPM
		While the 4C was working on CPPM (content protection specific to DVD-Audio), the group foresaw the need for a companion solution to handle the digital copies that could be made from music and video downloads as writable DVDs and SD Flash Memory cards became widespread.
		But the 4C quickly realized that the plethora of content protection solutions, digital devices and transmission options required an overall system architecture that could guide product manufacturers in selecting content protection technologies and assure content providers their content was protected within the overall framework.
		The 4C and other content protection organizations would be well advised to start educating consumers on the nature of the freedoms and restrictions they will see as homes and the content coming to and from them grows increasingly digital.

		Copyright protection negotiations between the major labels and the 4C Entity ("four-company": IBM, Intel, Matsushita, and Toshiba) have been the primary stumbling blocks to an industry-wide DVD-Audio software rollout.
		The labels refused the 4C Entity's initial encryption offering, which was built on DVD-Video's CSS encryption technology, following the widely publicized cracking of CSS by rogue DVD player developers.
		While the 4C Entity introduced a purportedly more robust solution this summer, licensing agreements between the labels and the entity have not followed.

	Content Protection for Recordable Media - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Content Protection for Recordable Media and Pre-Recorded Media (CPRM / CPPM) is a mechanism for controlling the copying, moving and deletion of digital media on a host device, such as a personal computer, or other digital player.
		It is a form of Digital rights management developed by The 4C Entity, LLC (IBM, Intel, Matsushita and Toshiba).
		The use of the CPRM specification and access to the intellectual property and cryptographic materials required to implement it requires a license from 4C Entity, LLC.

	Hardware safe from copy protection - ZDNet UK News
		The group, known as the 4C Entity, had created technology it called Content Protection for Recordable Media (CPRM) which would add a piracy-blocking mechanism directly into hardware drives.
		The 4C group brought their proposal to the National Committee on Information Technology Standards (NCITS) and asked that support for copy-protection technology be added into the rules governing the way computer drives talk to each other.
		The vote will not prevent the 4C group from continuing to license and sell its CPRM technology, as well as a related antipiracy technique called Content Protection for Prerecorded Media (CPPM), which is already used for mediums including audio on DVDs.

	Ballots sent out on controversial NCITS proposal
		and Toshiba Corp., touched off the controversy when they formed a group called 4C Entity to persuade the T13 technology committee to incorporate its new code into the next ATA (Advanced Technology Attachment) standard, which dictates the way a PC communicates with its hard drive and other drives.
		Proponents said the changes that 4C Entity wanted to make were generic and would allow vendors to incorporate any type of content protections, not just CPRM, and CPRM would apply only to ATA-driven removable devices, such as Zip drives and flash memory, not hard drives.
		The e-mail went on to compare the T13 meeting as the equivalent of 4C Entity gathering in a smoke-filled room to define their own set of exclusionary copy-protection specifications.
