Tom Holroyd passed along some interesting pieces of
information from Eric S Arnum's recent piece over at
SonicNet. Many of you saw that the RIAA has decided to
lauch their Secure Digital Music Initiative (SDMI). Well,
that's not so interesting on it's own, but their choice of company
is. It's a subsidary of SAIC, a privately held company that does
work in secure defense commnuications. The company (SAIC) has
worked with the CIA, NSA, and Navy, amongst others.
