The above is the 'master key' of sorts for all currently-produced HD-DVD and Blu-Ray movies. It's what is known as the Processing Key, and the fact that both formats share this key shows how childish Sony's insistance on using Blu-Ray really is, as well as how futile any form of Digital Rights Management is.

Feel free to snag the picture, pass it along anywhere you can or want. :-)

And in the meantime, this shows something very important. It took them millions, if not billions of dollars, and years, to develop this encryption. Once it hit the real world, it took weeks to be broken.

DRM is dead, they just aren't willing to admit it yet. :-)
