The Pig and the Box

An anti-DRM picture book for kids!

"One day, Pig finds a magic box that can replicate anything you put into it.

Pig becomes so protective of his box, and so suspicious of anyone that wants to use it, that he takes drastic measures.

He forces everyone to take their copied items home in special buckets... buckets designed to protect.

But might not be so good for anyone else..."

Muslix64 decrypted also Blu-ray

After some (day) days, also (a) Blue-ray film was decrypted by Muslix64, the same Hacker that decrypted HD DVD...

(Is) It's necessary point out that this disc (is) will be protected only by AACS, but the final release of Blu-ray disc will protect also by BD+.

Will it be enough (for) to prevent the copy ???

I don't believe it...

No doubt related to our lawsuit brought by the MPAA, but we don't have more information at this time until people responsible comes to work tomorrow. We will be back in operation once we sort out this mess with our current ISP, or we get new hardware ready at our new ISP. We'll update here as the news change.Sit back and enjoy the rest of the internet in the mean time, while it last.

The real builder page of DVD Shrink is dvdshrink.org, and scam alert appears:

_________________________________________
