AACS LA to fight AnyDVD HD

Back to its main purpose, to protect HD DVD and Blu-ray movie discs from being copied, "data keys" will provide additional encryption during the transmission of data from the drive to the PC (bus encryption). The keys will be different for each drive and each movie discs. According to AACS LA, even if hackers found and posted keys, it would not enable anybody else to decrypt the discs with their equipment.

The keys currently being used by SlySoft's AnyDVD HD will soon be revoked also, meaning that the software will be incapable of decrypting newer titles and that users with HD playback software will probably soon need to update.

I'm sure there will be some type of keygen capable of calculating the "data key" based on other information from the disc, serial, or elsewhere.

It's only a matter of time  (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy.gif)

They make it sound like it's some sort of a challenge to get keys.

I think every comment here can be summed up in one statement:

They just have to look like they care. They know that they won't win in the long run anyway. I mean so what if only 1 person have a key to there movie? They dont have to spread the key just spread the copy of the movie instead so ppl can download it.
They are just trying to cover there asses. They prob told the movie industrie that there system are bullitproof and had them invest shit lot of money into it and know when it wasnt so bullitproof as they said they have to "do something" to protect the interest of there investers (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) well i just say "SHIT HAPPENDS"

Their press release makes it sound like this has something to do with AnyDVD. Who the hell hacks dvd's by snooping on the IDE cable?? Nobody. Non-issue.

Like they were that last time? And people found the new keys before the discs actually hit the shelves?

The more they try the more the pirates will fight back!! So it's useless. Look at xp for example it was cracked before official release!! or even vista is easy.
