    Blu-ray copy protection 'cracked'

    A company claims it has cracked the anti-piracy technology on Blu-ray discs.
    Slysoft says the new version of its AnyDVD programme allows users to make "backup security copies" of high definition movies.

    The claim is a blow to Sony which developed the Blu-ray format.

    The discs are protected by an anti-piracy system called BD+.

    When it launched in 2007, developers boasted it would not be cracked for 10 years.

    Sony declined to comment.

    SlySoft says it hacked the BD+ technology in November.

    It decided to wait for the result of the "format war" between Blu-ray and HD DVD before releasing a full product.

    BD+ is designed to react to attempts on its technology.

    Its developers say they can re-lock copied discs, making them unusable in the future.

    SlySoft reckons it is prepared for this.

    Peer van Heuen from the company said: "The worst-case scenario is our boss locks us up with only bread and water in the company dungeon for three months until we are successful again."

                                  Even with a 16 Mbps connection a blu-ray rip would take at least 3.5 hours. How many have that? Not many in the US that's for sure. I highly doubt that people are using their 2 Mbps connection for 30 hours straight to download a blu-ray rip.

                                          it wasn't that many moons ago that people would wait overnight and into the next day to download a music cd...

                                                  bluray rips are the way of the future, lol

                                                  don't be thinking pirates aren't willing to wait a little longer to download whatever the freshes tof the fresh is...

                                                          It's not 'alledged' the software is for sale on their site, and has been for a couple of weeks.

                                                          Thing is, who gives a shit? The blank media costs more than the films at the moment!

That isnt gonna take 3.5 hours to grab a 8.5gig (or smaller) file. You're looking at 2 hours max. Who wouldnt wait 2 hours to save 30 bucks plus the gas it takes to drive to the store and buy it?

                                                                          Originally posted by DamianJ

Haven't seen a movie that compelled me to even pay for NetFlix to watch a year later. If I want it, I'll buy it, but, man, that hasn't happened for a long time.

By the way Sony is only part of the blu-ray consortium. Ironic those bashing blu-ray because of Sony's connection LOVE Apple which is also part of the same consortium. Hmmmmmm. Where is the "Fuck Apple" posts?

That isnt gonna take 3.5 hours to grab a 8.5gig (or smaller) file. You're looking at 2 hours max. Who wouldnt wait 2 hours to save 30 bucks plus the gas it takes to drive to the store and buy it?

Of the 50% that do have "broadband 50% of those have 2 Mbps or less. At 2 Mbps one can only download 256 KB of data per second. Less than 10% of those that have broadband actually have 10 Mbps connection or higher.
