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 programmes, 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.
For example:
1You can make a copy of a commercially available
digital sound programme (for example, a CD or
MD), but you cannot make a second copy from the
first-generation copy.
2You can make a copy of a digital signal from a
digitally recorded analogue sound programme (for
example, an analogue record or a music cassette
tape) or from a digital satellite broadcast
programme, 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.
Note
This copy management system doesn’t apply when
you make a recording through analogue-to-analogue
connections.
