One problem with your argument is that the 30M shares only came into existence on 12/29, so if BMG had really wanted to get the technology on the cheap, they could have bought the company at any time before then. They could also have licensed the technology at any time, which they didn't.

The music world has moved on from what it was 2 years ago. None of the labels have shown any desire to protect music on physical media since then and that was the all that MediaMax could do. Protection of online distribution is through Windows DRM or Fairplay and even those are being rejected in favor of DRM free distribution.

There is nothing in MediaMax copy protection that BMG couldn't put together in a few months themselves with a team of programmers.
