Absolutely insane, the level of technical prowess and how much time and effort went into making something like this work. Although, DRM is cancer and shouldn’t exist, I can respect how this dude hacked it.
Yeah, I’m not installing DRM to watch anything on any service. I’ll pirate, thanks very much.
Or you could buy it legally. What we need is a way to keep a lot of the crime at bay while making sure people who take the time to buy blurays and DVDs can still have a legal home library
Disney announced the end of physical media in Australia and New Zealand. Blackmarkets arise naturally when supply does not meet demand. It is preferable, morally and for society if people share media for free rather than fund organised crime as happens with most other black markets. I try and support creative industries where I can but piracy is the lesser evil in some cases.
Reminding me why I don’t nerd out nearly as hard as I used to. I’m way too lazy for this sort of thing now and there’s only so much time in a day.
Nice blog. And cool footer banner.
