True. But not so much protection against copying the info outright....but
protection from letting someone else USE the information if copied. That's
what I need to work out. Yes, I know passwords are there...but I want to
find something less common??<shrug> Cooler, maybe?

Subject: [mso] Copy Protection of Data (including CDs)
Copy protection is incredibly difficult.
Remember that the RIAA has been trying for some time.
They have been unsuccessful so far.
BUT, once we do get copy protection working, then it will be able to protect
all sorts of data. For example, we will be able to copy protect books, so
that they can only be read by authorized people, and so that payment must
happen for each reading.
Copy protection cuts many ways.
Here is an article on that topic.
