Well uncrackable isn't the right word, just extremely difficult. People most definitely tried, but it was quite a task. Why bother when ExpressVu and DishNetwork were still wide open? With the two of them sealed up who knows, maybe it will be worth it for satellite pirates to take another shot at DTV? I still have a feeling someone will crack the Nagra3 encryption before we see DTV open up.
