    New Year, New Songs

    Today on Soundcheck, live music from the indie band, All Nights Chemists. And the best in spoken word from the director of the Bowery Poetry Club. Also: Sony BMG has tentatively settled at least 15 consumer class actions brought against the music company over its use of copy-protection software on CDs. We're joined by Brian Krebs, a technology columnist for Washingtonpost.com, where he authors the "Security Fix" blog, with a look at its implications.
