It wont stop piracy but it will reduce it. The audio and video hare decrypted and presented in a decrypted format. With the music....you can rerip them using a cdrw\dvdrw......how do you think the whole real player\itunes\msn music library is available on free p2p. DRM videos may be tricky. If all else fails...you can build capture interfaces......for audio all you need is is a phono cable, audio card with audio in(for the headphones) and a simple mp3 encoder. The video, if it is regular ntsc, can be captured with an older dv device which doesnt care for macrovision(if they use that in the output).....for hd.....there is technology to come but I doubt if anyone will be downloading HD videos. Its only a measure to reduce piracy to the highly skilled. bah……..it will stop newbs but it wont stop hackers. It wont stop piracy but it will reduce it.

They've already got a good thing going with the prohibitionists funding their every move, now they can go pirate hunting too. Perhaps MP3's will be designated a "stimulant" and banned by the DEA.

They’ve already got a good thing going with the prohibitionists funding their every move, now they can go pirate hunting too.

acts of terrorism devestate the lives of thousands of people around the globe….lax airport security is blamed, airport security is still lax….new threats come of using aircraft as weapons…lax airport security and weak security in general still exists….all of a sudden biometeric security appears, but not where it would do the general population the most good, but where it might serve to further line the pockets of foreign MNC’s.

Yah, society is messed up, the almighty dollar not only trumps democracy but also common sense.
