OpenMG™ Jukebox 2.0
OpenMG Jukebox is a software application that utilizes Sony Corporation’s 
copyright protection technology. OpenMG Jukebox maintains the holder’s 
copyrights by preventing unauthorized distribution of digital audio files.
OpenMG Jukebox software lets you play and record audio CDs and import 
digital audio files while maintaining the copyright information of the contents. 
When you record an audio CD with OpenMG Jukebox, it is encoded in ATRAC3 
format onto your computer’s hard drive. You can download digital audio files 
from Electronic Music Distribution (EMD) services. The imported data can be 
played on your computer or transferred to external devices or media. OpenMG 
Jukebox converts your existing MP3 and WAV format audio files into OpenMG 
format (WAV format audio files are converted into ATRAC3 format or changed 
into OpenMG MP3 format).
Electronic Music Distribution (EMD) Services
EMD allows you to download music files via the Internet. To use Internet 
services that are compatible with OpenMG Jukebox, you need:

version of the software (Version 1.0, 1.1, or 1.2). Do not install an earlier 
version of OpenMG Jukebox on your computer, as this may cause the software
