 PROFILE
Even eggheads in Coke-bottle glasses get scrambled by Macrovision. The firm produces copyright protection and video scrambling technologies used by commercial videocassette duplicators, software companies, set-top decoder manufacturers, and the major motion picture studios. Its video products prevent unauthorized copying and viewing of programs stored on videocassette and DVD or broadcast on pay-per-view cable and over satellite networks. UK-based subsidiary C-Dilla makes CD-ROM copy protection technology under the SafeDisc name, while its GLOBEtrotter Software unit provides electronic licensing technology to software vendors. EVP and director Matthew Christiano owns a 14% stake in the company.
