The AACS protection scheme has been bypassed, but not cracked, but the chicken is about halfway out of the egg, IMHO. A leaked valid Player Key after being revoked will only work on HD-DVDs created before it was revoked. However, now that we have some valid keys, it will make it easier for hackers to pull keys from other sources, including hardware players. So, now people are pulling Volume keys from memory and posting them online, allowing people to rip HD- DVDs.”]
