What angers me the most is they tease us with The Search for More Money in the original yet never bother producing it. |

I know. They just left us hanging :(
Seriously though, if they were to make it now it would be a total hit, I reckon. That movie is such a classic now. |

As far as I know, it was cracked. |

it all started on doom9.org
Inside each HD-DVD is a DRM style protection called ACCS(?) which will protect the data from being copied. However, like most security systems, it uses an algorhythem(sp?)to determine its encryption (which should've been unique to each HD-DVD). People were posting their keys on the doom9 forums to their DVDs to create a database.
However, people started noticing that some people with different titles were coming up with the same keys, and that would be
09 F9 11 02 9d 74 E4 5b D8 41 56 C5 63 56 88 C0
more and more HD-DVDs were tested, and it was found to be a universal crack to the copy protection.
Most people who are hella into digital rights, like i dunno, DjConfessions, loved that it was cracked. Forget that it protects against piracy, it also infringes on a consumer's right to create backups for himself.
The consumer should be able to make a physical back-up for themselves. Copy it to their hard drive (such as a mobile laptop). Or in my case, put it on a media network Hard Disk so I can simply connect to my Hard Disk and watch the movie over the internet.
The number became a sensation and it exploded onto tech websites such as Digg and Engadget (this actually happened about 3 weeks after it was discovered). The industry sent Cease & Desist letters to these websites to take down the number, as it "broke" the "law." Inititally, they complied, but so many people were re-posting the number in a number of crazy ways (fortune cookies, poems, bible quotes, etc), that they just gave up and let the number run freely.
And the industry has yet to sue anybody over their claim of OWNING a series of characters and numbers.
They have updated to a new key (first put onto HD-DVD The Matrix Trilogy), which has already been cracked with a NEW universal key.
i hope i didn't miss anything. |

| When will they learn that you can't design this in a way that it cannot be hacked? Some people will be honest, some will not. , that's life. |

| very interesting, suspicionvandit. |

| Yeah, if it can be watched or listened to, it can be cracked. When will they realise this? |

I just wish I had the heart to develop a "blue box", (which would just be a shoebox with some duct tape and a USB wire hanging out) which i rent to people to crack their movies
/I've had an idea for anti-DRM for a long long time, but i'm don't own a suit, so i probably can't make any money off of it if i were to do a presentation in their boardroom. |

You should give it a shot anyway. You never know right? |

Exactly.
DRM is ing pointless. All I need to to is buy the tune, record it with Audacity while listening to it and voila! A perfectly usable version of the tune, uncompressed from the version I purchased. Then again I just don't buy DRM'd material, so I don't have to go through that process. |

i just love how the industry pushes all this new technology on us (further inflating their profit margins), then start crying when they realise they've shot themselves in the foot with their new digital "revolution".
im not a piracy advocate, but the controls the industry put into their product (like DVD regions for instance) are an absolute disgrace and an impediment to free trade and limit our use of a product we paid for. |

it's an inexact science, and to be fair, a market that is very new, in the grand scheme of things. They've only had a few years to worry about this, because before the internet became so "big," none of this was an issue. It wasn't like there were people making copies of books and re-selling them, and even with VHS, the number of people actually copying stuff was negligible.
They're trying to figure out where the best balance is, and they haven't found it yet. |
