### Apple Core Audio Update, DRM and Copyright Issues

- **Episode:** [151: Turkeys Going Rogue](https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/151-turkeys-going-rogue.md)
- **Published:** 2009-11-26
- **Time:** 0:01–5:06
- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/151-turkeys-going-rogue/chapter/apple-core-audio-update-drm-and-copyright-issues.md

The podcast begins with a discussion regarding technical delays caused by a recent Apple system update that altered Core Audio drivers. This update reportedly disrupted configurations for Jackpilot and other professional audio routing software. The changes are attributed to Apple's digital rights management (DRM) agreements with the music industry, which aim to prevent high-sample-rate audio hijacking. Companies like Rogue Amoeba have faced challenges on Apple platforms due to these restrictive low-level system modifications.
