AACS DRM Cracked? > so back to the thesis

so back to the thesis

No. The cited article describes an application written to use stolen or keygen-obtained individual title keys. The DRM is unaffected. The only way it works is if you get the key to play the file, which is hardly a "crack" of the DRM. In fact, that's pretty much the way it's designed to work.

This is the equivalent to someone figuring out how to get the key pattern from one padlock and then unlock it. It doesn't affect any other padlock, and really is not relevant until someone figures out if there is a master key pattern that unlocks every padlock ever made. Whether that is possible is unknown, and would truly be a cracked DRM scenario. This isn't it.

The uproar here is typical, "didn't read the article" nonsense.
