DVD Decrypter Down

www.dvddecrypter.com - the Official site has been down for a couple of days now - lets hope it's just a glitch!

Assorted mirrors still seem to be up

Yet again, the big guy's multi-million dollar lawyers swat the little guy - time to make sure you have the most up to date copy possible, of this and any other things the media barons will take a dislike to, aided by biased DMCA-style legislation.

It's a pity this wasn't on the open-sourced / run and hide model that LAME MP3 survives on, as it seems to be a valid principle that source code comes under "free speech" protection.

As said, it certainly plays into the hands of Slysoft (CloneCD / CloneDVD / AnyDVD) - the cynical may even wonder if THEY actually started agitating against their free competition.

Now what else to grab?

It is sad to see such talent put out to pasture because of a greedy company. Think about it how much do movie stars really get from the dvd sales? Not nearly as much from the movies, if it is anything like cd's it is about 30 cents per dvd. I guess greedy bastards are all the same, be it movies, music, oil, food etc. Thank you to everyone that worked on the DVD Decryptor software, your hard pennyless work will not be forgotton.
