HD-DVD and Blu-Ray AACS DRM Cracked

On Slashdot:

According to this article on Endgadget, the AACS DRM used in HD-DVD and Blu-Ray has been cracked. The program allows one to decrypt and dump the video for play on a users hard drive, or it can be burned to a blank HD-DVD and played on a stand-alone player. According to the accompanying video, a source release for the program will be made available in January.

I'm not surprised here. This was totally coming. Hooray to the crackerz! W00! Pwned!
