ROSH HA'AYIN, ISRAEL ? SEPTEMBER 3: Amos Loewidt, founder and CEO of Doc Witness, displays his company's OpSecure product in his office September 3, 2002 in Rosh Ha'Ayin, Israel. Loewidt believes he's found a solution to the worldwide problem of CD piracy by placing a slender, plastic-covered electronic card with an electronic chip, a unique serial number and two optical detectors onto a CD. He said that Doc Witness's technology would prevent CD pirating from software and prevent original disks from being installed in more than one computer at any one time. The product will be ready for the market in about four months. CD piracy costs the software and music industries tens of billions of dollars in lost revenues annually.
