HP to Blu-ray:

Isso da protecção é algo relevante! Pode-se fazer da maneira simples atravéz do reverse engineering da cifra, como foi feito ao CSS, ou da maneira difícil que é ir ao meio onde passam os dados desencriptados.
Lembrem-se que de uma forma ou outra, os dados têm que ser desencriptados numa fase ou outra do processo de visualização do filme. E é nessa fase que se pode apanhar os dados e criar as cópias, sem encriptação e sem esses códigos de protecção.
E depois como é que "eles" vão apanhar o autor das cópias?

Protecções em média digital é algo absurdo. Há sempre uma forma de dar a volta!

Quanto a essa guerra de formatos, a mim só me interessa os GB's/€. Se o HD-DVD for mais barato por giga do que o Blu Ray, então é HD-DVD que compro. Senão é Blu Ray. É tão simples como isso.
 
Realmente as protecções e os custos do BLUE ray são ridículos.

Mas uma maneira de apanhar o Video é simplesmente pela saída para monitor DVI.
Claro k eles já querem impingir o HDMI, mas haverá sempre uma maneira de apanhar o Video OUT
 
HP não aceita o meio termo da Blu-Ray association, pré-anuncia suporte ao HD-DVD

HP to Become Neutral in Blu-Ray Vs. HD DVD Clash

Blu-ray disc association recently said that it would partly adopt HP’s proposals to implement certain functionality into the Blu-ray standard. The decision did not satisfy HP, who said that it would support HD DVD standard as well with its personal computers (PCs).

In mid-October, 2005, HP, who is the world’s second largest maker of personal computers (PCs), asked the Blu-ray group to include functionality known as mandatory managed copy, allowing users to copy high-definition movies onto their computers from discs and distribute them on home networks. HP also asked Blu-ray to support a feature called iHD, which provides for new interactive features and is slated to be implemented in Microsoft’s new Windows Vista operating system.

“Mandatory managed copy will be part of Blu-ray format, but while HP’s request (for interactivity) is being considered, at this point in time, the Blu-ray group is still proceeding down the path of Java,” Blu-ray spokesman Andy Parsons told Reuters news-agency.

The representative for the Blu-ray disc association said that the organization would not like to support the iHD technology just now in order not to delay the wide commercial launch of the Blu-ray format. While Mr. Parsons did not clearly say when the iHD capability is to be implemented into the Blu-ray, he also did not say that the alliance would definitely not implement the proposed capability.

“If they are unable to incorporate technologies we think are critical for the PC architecture, we’ll be more neutral. We’ll think of cost and implementation across the board. Potentially, we could support both HD DVD and Blu-ray,” said Maureen Weber, general manager of personal storage in HP’s personal systems group.

It is not clear what exactly Ms. Weber meant by saying about implementation cost considerations. Potentially, HP could follow Samsung, who is to introduce a player capable of both Blu-ray and HD DVD playback, and equip its PCs with optical drives capable of reading both formats. However, if this is not enough cost effective, HP may just ship PCs with different drives allowing end-users to choose the right one for their needs.
