Windows Media Drm 10 Cracked?

Quote
Uh oh, Microsoft. Okay, we can’t vouch for the validity of this right now, but word has it that a particular Japanese site has discovered a method to break Microsoft’s Windows Media DRM 10 on WMV files (which is Windows Media Video, if you haven’t been paying attention).  No word on whether the two apps that aim to do it (DrmDbg and DRM2WMV) can be retooled for decrypting DRM’d audio files (WMA), and it looks like you need to have a license for the content you want to crack in the first place—though obviously once the DRM is stripped away, you should be generally able to do whatever you want with the file (share it online, transfer it to a personal video player, etc.).

Very Good 
Will be good that the disc labels understand that the idea of music with license is a very stupid thing

Won't happen.

Only a handful of geeks will get knowledge of this tool and learn how to use it. Or do you expect it to be featured at the front page of CNet's download.com with an usage guide?

The vast majority of users won't even know this solution exists, and that's what matters to the studios. I believe they already got used to the idea that no DRM system is 100% unbreakable, and are now just looking for the hardest one to break.

The people (around 5 years ago) believed that the DVD video was unbreakable, and you know that is the reality today...

Look this equation:
Stupid disc labels restrict music --> People obtain frustration --> People obtain angry with disc labels --> People more motivate to piracy..

My point is: The stupid ideas from disc labels produce as consequence more piracy, and always your stupid protections are broken...

Of course I do. If I didn't believe it, I wouldn't have written it.

Right. I don't think the industry will commit the same errors (E.G, using weak cryptography, doing lots of advertizing for ripping tools when going to court against authors and distributors, etc.) twice...

Just look at DVD-Audio. Nobody so far managed to break the cryptography yet. The industry learned, and instead of using DVD's weak 56bits crypto algorythm, they went with full blown 256bits keys. They are also being much more careful about who they give decrypting routines and keys to.

Also, Microsoft already showed they are very proactive against anti-DRM tools. They quickly updated their DRM scheme to make UnF*ck and FreeMe useless. That will probably happen again if this japanese tool actually works and isn't just some vapourware.

The amount of people really frustrated with DRM is limited to some very vocal and obsessed people (E.G, Bond). Most people don't give a damn about DRM as long as they have reasonable freedom with the files they bought (look at iTMS success)

Now that's absurd, and stabilishes an unjustifiable relation of causality.

Also, don't call everything "stupid". That doesn't help your argument in any way.

Of course, the same errors no; but if new errors that are even worse than the old ones.. as for example copy protection CDs, that many people hates and rejects.

This commentary is not only to DRM, is too applied to copy protection CDs, as too to evil contracts that as consequence exploits to the artists.. and many more...

you are wrong... I am not call everything "stupid" as you believe. I am call "stupid" ONLY to the disc labels and their ideologies that; for me lack of intelligence...
Or maybe, you are particularly very sensitive to this word??

I'm talking about technical errors, not errors that go against your beliefs.

I never said I believe it is impossible. Can't you get into a discussion without resorting to such childish tactics?

First, I don't see where artist exploitaition is directly related to "Stupid disc labels restrict music". Again, you are taking relations of causality out of nowhere.

Second, copy protected CDs are a daft move born out of despair. The CDDA technology wasn't created with DRM in mind, so all DRM solutions are ugly hacks.

But CDDA is almost 25 years old. In case you didn't notice, we were talking about new technologies here (WMV, DVD-A) that were built with DRM in mind.

Obvious? That protection increases piracy? I won't even bother to comment.

Bad example, I think.
It is similiar to the story of Uncatcheable Joe:

- No. Nobody is interested, simply.

just a quick question: how can it be encrypted if I can listen to it?
--alt-presets are there for a reason! These other switches DO NOT work better than it, trust me on this.

No, because your arguments don't hold ground.

I call childish people that call everything "stupid" due to lack of clue.

The Futility of Digital Copy Prevention

A little quote:
Quote
They want to implement widespread copy prevention of digital files, so that people can view or listen to content on their computer but can't copy or distribute it.

Abstractly, it is an impossible task. All entertainment media on the Internet (like everything else on the Internet) is just bits: ones and zeros. Bits are inherently copyable, easily and repeatedly. If you have a digital file -- text, music, video, or whatever -- you can make as many copies of that file as you want, do whatever you want with the copies. This is a natural law of the digital world, and makes copying on the Internet different from copying Rolex watches or Louis Vuitton luggage.

It seems that "WM DRM 10" wasn't cracked at all and this was just a false rumour that got spread quickly.

so it seems. I did a quick check on the net as information hit afterdawn.com (one of the first who posted it in English AFAIK), to no avail. the story behind the news is also likely to be made up. anyway, we'll see.

I remember that this begun after somebody had posted at doom9. The forum is currently off-line so i can't put up a link. The post referred to some Japanese newsgroup and the information was translated using babelfish or something similar.

that would also indicate the source comment from the AfterDawn news.
the two named files where not found by me (via search engines) after my first read, so I thought there is a good chance that this is a hoax.

You should know  by now (as should anyone using an MB) that it's all too easy to mistake someone's use of English, as a 2nd language, for something else.

only 1 person per album on p2p need be gifted with a brain to circumvent drm for everyone.

luckily the music/video i care about doesn't fall into the drm category (i.e. britney spears' new release, and miscellaneous porn)

Exactly, it is not necessary that average-joe knows about this tool. One person to crack the content, then average joe can just DL his *bought* media from a filesharing-network to use it on whatever player he wants. Wait a min - why should he or she buy it, when there is a better service available for free? Still think that DRM doesn't criminalize honest users? Whatever...
