Unwritten is the debut album released by pop singer Natasha Bedingfield. It was released in the UK on September 6, 2004, where it debuted at #1, and in the U.S. on August 2, 2005, where it debuted at #26. It spawned the singles, "Single", "These Words", "Unwritten", "I Bruise Easily" and "The One That Got Away" (which was only released in North America). It also had a surprising feature from rapper Bizarre of D12 in the International and UK version, but the US version featured rapper/singer Estelle.

Extended Copy Protection

In November 2005, it was revealed that Sony was distributing albums with Extended Copy Protection, a controversial feature that automatically installed rootkit software on any Microsoft Windows machine upon insertion of the disc. In addition to preventing the CD's contents from being copied, it was also revealed that the software reported the users' listening habits back to Sony and also exposed the computer to malicious attacks that exploited insecure features of the rootkit software. Though Sony initially refused to release a list of the affected CDs, the Electronic Frontier Foundation identified Unwritten as one of the discs with the invasive software. However, the DualDisc release does not contain such software.
