Yeah, some games are a bit too subtle, like reducing player accuracy in an FPS. Others can be quite funny when players complain online. http://www.eurogamer.n

  I wonder if you could do that with music, put a few off key notes or change a word in a song and have it uploaded to various sites? Would seem like you could have fun with people that way and still get yourself heard.

    I thought I had read that DAT (digital audio tape) detected altered notes/frequencies to avoid copying, but it appears to only have been a proposed idea. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serial_Copy_Management_System#History http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serial_Copy_Management_System#H... People have done pitch-shifting and other tricks to get around YouTube's Content ID in the past. And the fictional word "esquivalience" was added to the New Oxford American Dictionary to detect copies. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Oxford_American_Dictionary#Fictitious_entry http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Oxford_American_Dictionary#...

    Just upload the song encoded at 24Kb/s mono off a CD that you dropped on the sidewalk and kicked around. Seems to be how they did it during the late 90's early 00's.
