Napster taps Loudeye for copyright security
Napster taps Loudeye for copyright security
Napster has selected Loudeye Technologies Inc. to provide digital "fingerprints" and other data to help the online song-swapping service spot and delete copyright songs. Using fingerprinting technology provided by Napster, Loudeye will develop unique digital signatures for more than 2 million tracks. The information also will be used for Napster's planned membership service, which is scheduled to launch this summer.
