On Wed, 9 Nov 2005 16:22:43 +0100 The regio protection is already declared illegal in Switzerland. Or why do you think you can here to buy a region-free dvd player while you cannot in Germany ?
[..]
BTW: It's also illegal to sell copy protected music CDs that carry the compact disc label[1], as they do not conform to the compact disc standard.
Please don't mix those up, they're 100% independent each from another. The first thing is a legal fact valid for switzerland, it is swiss law (iirc "Verbraucherrecht"). The second is a copyright / patent issue brought up by philipps who is the owner of the Compact-Disc standard. All others using this label are licensing this standard. Since those Copy-Protected CDs do not comply with this standard, Philipps sees a patent-violation in this.
