Hi!

I did some digging, and was unable to find any reference to the
softDVDcrack which was mentioned in the EETimes article. It could
well be that this was a PR stunt by C-Cube to push their hardware
decoders. Then again, it could be that the author of the article
couldn't tell the difference between a region code crack and a
CSS crack, and C-Cube just jumped on the bandwagon.
