Basically the guy just ripped a copy of Full Metal Jacket from an HD-DVD. Meaning that it’s not some fancy format that can’t be broken.

Or simply put, HD-DVDs coming to a torrent near you.

Bingo.

It just shows that charging 60+ for a video game sucks and shoulda charged less and spent more $$ on encryption. Drop the price and I’m sure plenty of people won’t download haha.

Anywho :thumbs up: to cracking that. I remember back in the day when they first cracked the dvd regionals and that was awesome!

NICE :tup: that didnt take too long lol

these companies should realize that no matter how much time and $$$ they spend on technology to stop people from backing up their rightfully owned property, there’s some 35yr old dude in his moms basement that will find a way around it in half the time 😛

maybe they could start charging less for 'em too

I don’t think many people will be downloading 47 gig torrents of HD movies…

But wait, Fiber optics are coming soon and 400 gig harddrives are $100 bucks if you find a sale so, it’ll be getting much more practical.

:word: I download 1gig torrents (concerts mostly) that take 13+ hopurs becuase the speed is pretty low, but I still do it…

crap I remember when downloading from napster used to take 30mins plus on dial-up, and we had thousands of songs downloaded

Maybe they won’t have to… Unless the HD DVD and Blu Ray are already using MPEG4, there is substantial file size savings available without sacrificing quality…
