ARccOS - DVD-Video Digital Rights Management

ARccOS – Protect your content and increase your profit!

Copying unprotected DVDs has become so fast and cheap that almost anyone with a PC can copy a newly released title in a matter of minutes.
ARccOS, is the most advanced dynamic digital rights management solution (DRM) available for DVD-Video and is specifically engineered to prevent 1:1 duplication, ripping and mass replication of DVD-Video. The dynamic nature of ARccOS and ongoing research & development ensure that a generic crack cannot be applied to circumvent it.

Since its launch, ARccOS has achieved outstanding success and has been applied to more than 380 million DVDs, effectively protecting over 2,500 titles.
The highest levels of protection are applied with a seamless process to every title for every customer, and Sony DADCs unparalleled experience in the production and testing of CD and DVD technology ensures that ARccOS compatibility is tested to exacting standards. As a result, the highest quality and playback performance can be expected from protected DVDs on any DVD-Video or DVD-ROM device.

Significant ROI for those who apply digital rights management solutions to their DVD, DRM is much more than just a means to stop copying. A recent survey in the US revealed the extent of copying of DVDs in households in the US. What the survey also showed was the consumers reaction to copy control. It revealed that 44% of people, who tried and failed to copy a DVD-video title, actually went out and purchased or rented an original. By preventing copying, ARccOS leads inevitably to increased purchases of genuine products and increased profits.
