this is related more to image watermarking, but I thought it was pretty interesting: stars.com

This, in particular, is pretty clever: 2Mosaic 0.1 for Microsoft Windows 95/NT, written by Fabien Petitcolas will take a JPG and divide it into several smaller images, as well as create the appropriate HTML that will re-join the separate images into the full-sized single image on a web page. The individual pieces of the original image are smaller than the minimal required size necessary for a watermarking crawler such as that offered by Digimarc.

Wonder if you could use the same technique for audio - cut the song into snippets too small to retain the original watermark, and then reassemble it using SoundForge or QuickTime or something.

To see what I mean about snippets in QuickTime, check out mixme.com and compose a song - fun stuff. You'll notice that if you just change the variables, it downloads very fast - so it appears that QuickTime is actually playing snippets back to back.
