particularly on the Internet, have recently been on the increase. That is why the Recording Industry 
Association of America (RIAA) took the initiative to organize a forum called Secure Music Digital Initiative 
(SDMI) to study technology for protecting copyrights during the electronic distribution of music.
Sony offers the MagicGate Memory Stick™ and Memory Stick™ Walkman with a copyright protection 
function that complies with SDMI standards, thereby providing an environment where individuals can 
record and enjoy third-party music data without worrying about copyright infringement.
Artistic works that are recorded by individuals are permitted for private usage only.
