Sony has said it will suspend the production of music CDs with anti-piracy technology which can leave computers vulnerable to viruses.
The move came after security firms said hackers were exploiting the software to hide their creations. The software has been used by viruses to evade detection by anti-virus programs and infect computers.
Sony said it had a right to stop people illegally copying music, but added that the halt was precautionary. "We also intend to re-examine all aspects of our content protection initiative to be sure that it continues to meet our goals of security and ease of consumer use," the company said in a statement.
