Comments on: Tech, studio giants team on new DVD locks

New technology would let high-definition videos be copied, moved into home networks.

Go a head an release it, so it can be cracked...

Truly secure DRM is a mathematical impossibility. Because of the way encryption works the end-user must have the key to decrypt the information. That means the security of the DRM is dependant on how well the keys can be hidden. All it takes is one good copy.

heh

actauly sony and nintendo hae been able to encrpyt and protect their systems pretty good
firmwire 1.51 and up on psp hasn't been cracked though they managed to let people to revert back to 1.5 to allow emulators on
and no nintendo DS emulators have worked 100% cause nintendo won't release the information to the public

Can't stop it.

Snake Oil

As was stated in both of the previous takes, this is a mathematically impossible goal. You have to ultimately trust all end users of the item you are trying to protect in order for ANY such system to work. Hence, you may as well just trust copyright law to protect it from transgressors.

These guys are making a mint on snake oil, and it is not costing the motion picture companies because they will pass-on (with mark-up) the cost to EVERY CONSUMER of the "protected" material.

What a waste of money.

DVD Encryptions

Everyone should be able to backup their dvds. I have alot of nieces & nephews who handle & ruin my dvds. Backing them up is great because if they ruin them, I just make another backup instead of losing money re-buying the dvd again. It's a consumers right to protect their purchase.
