  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.
A controversial proposal to embed CPRM in ATA hard drives was abandoned due to popular outcry in 2001.
However, as of 2004, CPRM is widely deployed in the popular Secure Digital Card consumer-electronics Flash memory format with no apparent notice from electronic personal-rights advocates.

A content key is derived by combining a media key, derived from the media key block, with the media identification.
The modified exchange key is then encrypted using the content key to render an encrypted modified exchange key, and the encrypted modified exchange key is then hashed with a nonce to render a bus content key.
The bus content key is then used to encrypt the data for copying the data to a disk.

CPRM or Content Protection for Recordable Media 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.
Some may redress this and include CPRM in their free software distributions, but in doing so, forever cede control of the content and information to the entertainment and media industries, argues Stallman.
CPRM is sponsored by the distributors of entertainment media, not the people who create it, and we're yet to find an author or artist who approves of the mechanism.

 Content Protection for Recordable Media
The Content Protection for Recordable Media Specification is a set of standards brought on by a group of technology companies to protect content recorded on a number of physical media types.
CPRM is an integral part of an overall system for protecting content against unauthorized copying, known as the Content Protection System Architecture.
Content stored on the media is encrypted/decrypted by a Content Key derived from a one-way function of a secret Title Key and the copy control information (CCI) associated with the content.

Compatible downstream recorders must be able to detect and enforce the usage rules contained in a watermark embedded into an analog signal, or specified by digital CMI transmitted with encrypted digital content.
Creating such a recording does not require compliant devices to check or update digital or watermark CCI, and can be done regardless of any restrictions on copying protected content.

The media key block data is logically ordered in rows and columns that are used during the authentication process to generate a decryption key from a specific set of player keys (device keys).
CPRM is a mechanism that ties a recording to the media on which it is recorded.
When protected content is recorded onto the disc, it can be encrypted with a 56-bit C2 (Cryptomeria) cipher derived from the media ID. During playback, the ID is read from the BCA and used to generate a key to decrypt the contents of the disc.

This is the model that the content industry would like to see adopted worldwide, and the model that they claim has to be implemented in order to ratify the WIPO Copyright Treaty.
Essentially, the recording industry managed to convince the government that they should be compensated for any unauthorized copying of their copyrighted material that goes on within the privacy of people's homes.
This word has been used to describe the government's attitude towards the Content Industry, in that legislation is continually changing to protect their current revenue stream, even when the evidence indicates that it is no longer appropriate.

 Stealth plan puts copy protection into every hard drive | The Register
The proposals are already at an advanced stage: three drafts have already been discussed for incorporating CPRM (Content Protection for Recordable Media) into the ATA specification by the NCTIS T.13 committee.
If, as expected, the CPRM extensions become part of the ATA specification, copyright protection will be in every industry-standard hard disk by next summer, according to IBM.
Although it hardly has a prominent media profile - yet - CPRM in hardware is the most comprehensive mechanism for enforcing rights protection the industry has seen, and is likely to be viewed by content producers as a magic bullet.

 What's Wrong With Content Protection   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
Even when recording your own brand-new original audio, the default settings for analog recordings are that they can never be copied, nor ever copied in higher fidelity than CD's, and that only one copy can be made even if copying is ever authorized (if the other restrictions are somehow bypassed).
The CPRM specification, for example, allows a distributor of a bag of bits (who has access to software with this capability) to decide that future recipients will not be permitted to make copies of that bag of bits.
Copy protection pretends that the law and some fancy footwork with industrial cartels can maintain our current economic structures, in the face of a hurricane of positive technological change that is picking them up and sending them whirling like so many autumn leaves.

CPRM is an option found only in some consumer electronics (CE) DVD recorders that write DVD-RW and DVD-RAM discs using the DVD Video Recording format (DVD-VR).
This is accomplished by binding the content to the particular disc through encryption employing a binary code (media identifier) unique to each writable disc compliant with the CPRM system.

 Geek.com Geek News - Copy-protected hard drives
Content Protection for Recordable Media (CPRM) may be added into the ATA specification for hard drives by the NCTIS (National Committee for Information Technology Standards) in February.
CPRM is already in use on DVD and SD (secure digital) removable media, and an extension of that tech is what would be used on ATA devices like hard drives and ATAPI devices like CD-ROM/DVD and other removable media drives.
Because CPRM involves using special identifying codes on specific physical locations of the hard drive, software designed for use on non-CPRM drives won't necessarily work correctly when files are moved, and moving files at all from a CPRM-compliant device to an older device (or vice versa) will cause trouble as well.

Critical information (decryption keys, album identifiers) required to unlock content is located in protected regions of these discs (Control Data Zone of Lead-in Area and sector headers) accessible to the player or drive and under only carefully regulated circumstances.
And even if a disc lacks content protection it does not mean that copying is permitted.
This is accomplished by binding the content to the particular disc through encryption employing, among other things, a code (media identifier) unique to each writable disc compliant with the CPRM system.

 Definition of Digital rights management
The actual arrangements are called technical protection measures (although the distinction between the two terms is not particularly clear).
In contrast, because the "rights" that the content owner chooses to grant are not necessarily the same as the actual legal rights of the content consumer, DRM opponents maintain the phrase "digital rights management" is a misnomer, and that "digital restrictions management" is a more accurate characterization of the functionality of DRM systems.
Examples include hardware dongles that had to be attached to the computer prior to using the content, and USB and smart card devices working in a similar fashion.

Content Protection for Removable Media (CPRM) is a hardware-based technology designed to enforce copy protection restrictions through built-in mechanisms in storage media that would prevent unauthorized file copying.
Based on a technology called broadcast encryption that was developed by Amos Fiat and Moni Naar in 1993, the CPRM system would be used to incorporate digital tags into storage media, such as recordable CDs (CD-R, CD-RW) and flash memory cards for MP3 players.
CPRM was developed by 4C Entity, an industry consortium originally made up of Intel, IBM, Matsushita, and Toshiba.

 Toshiba to Commercialize DVD-R Medium with CPRM that Allows Users to Record Copy-Once Content
Digital broadcasting in Japan, including the terrestrial broadcasts that began in December 2003, BS, CS110 and "SKY Perfect TV!" digital broadcasts, increasingly use CPRM to protect content.
CPRM scrambles broadcast programs and allows copy-once recording only to DVD-R or RW discs formatted for Video Recording (VR).
In addition to recording copy-once content, the DVD-VR format allows recording of bilingual sound tracks for recorded programs, when available, for both analog and digital broadcasts, a capability not supported by conventional recording to DVD-R. Before a recording is finalized, users are also free to write data to the disc management area.
