As I understand it, Media Rights Technology isn't interested in consumer rights. They market technology that prevents consumers from making an analog or digital recording of copyrighted works-- So you couldn't just hook up the line out to a tape recorder if their software was involved.

They are suing because they feel that Apple, Microsoft, etc are required under the DMCA to keep consumers from making analog recordings and are thus required to pay MRT for their anti-copying software.

Seems shady to me.
