Blu-ray copy protection 'cracked' - GoFuckYourself.com

DVTimes · 03-28-2008, 08:04 PM

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.

That would be bad news ...

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

bobby666 · 03-30-2008, 03:36 AM

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!

DWB · 03-30-2008, 10:14 AM

It was cracked 2 months after it came out.

I can get speeds of up to 1.8 megs a second on a well seeded torrent. 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?

You can get them for like 8-10 dollars a pop if you shop around. The real issue is that the burners are pretty expensive still. However, that will change.

Thank god they haven't made any movies worth stealing for years.

The last DVD I bought was from a TV series... that I saw on TV.. for free. 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.

Rentals are the way to go anyway.

I agree. I think you should only own a movie that you really really enjoy and will watch multiple times. If that's not the case, then Blockbuster or Netflix is the way to go.

Yeah like um 3 years ago. Hell Sony sells DRM free music now. 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?

YOU can. 1/3 of American have no internt. 1/6 have dial-up. 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.
