Blu-ray discs get Managed Copy, hardware support nonexistent. Yet another reason why blue ray is a crock. I personally am sick and tired of this BS now and just wish BR would disappear. Why all the headache when I just want to watch a freakin movie and they keep moving the goal posts!!

 


LOL, just like DVD, infact DVD's didn't have any sort of legal Managed copy option, did people complain, no because they had no option. Did that stop people from backing up their DVD's, of course not, and the same applies for Blu-ray.

This whole Managed Copy BS is for the casuals that want to back up their stuff assuming they know and actually want to do it, the people who want to back up there movies have already been backing up their movies since blu-ray was cracked, Software like AnyDVD circumvent any security which then allows any program like Nero to simply duplicate the Blu-ray with no issue other than having a computer capable of doing such a task.

This is really a non issue for those that are into backing their stuff, yet you seem to just hate the format hence you putting it here. now I don't know weather or not your into HD stuff or not, or weather you even back up your own stuff as is right now, but if your complaining just for the sakes, then simply STFU.

Also, this would never be a problem if pirates didn't exist, but that would be an ideal world where people didn't steal, murders never happened, unfortunately we live in this world where shit like this happens, and companies just want to insure their content is protected as much as possible.
