Guide to the Serial Copy
Management System
Digital audio components, such as CDs, MDs, and
DATs let you copy music easily with high quality by
processing music as a digital signal.
To protect the copyrighted music programs, this
system uses the Serial Copy Management System that
allows you to make only a single copy of a digitally
recorded source through digital-to-digital
connections.
You can make only a first generation copy*
through a digital-to-digital connection.
That is:
1 You can make a copy of a commercially
available digital sound program (for example,
a CD or MD), but you cannot make a second
copy from the first-generation copy.
2 You can make a copy of a digital signal from a
digitally recorded analog sound program (for
example, an analog record or a music
cassette tape) or from a digital satellite
broadcast program, but you cannot make a
second copy.
* A first-generation copy means a digital recording of
a digital signal made on digital audio equipment.
For example, if you record from this system’s CD
player to the MD deck, you make a first-generation
copy.
