Kaleidescape Sued by the DVD Copy Control Association
Posted by Filip Norrgard in "NEWS" @ 09:00 AM
"Kaleidescape, one of the few players in the DVD movie server market that has made the best effort in producing a fully licensed, be it a super-expensive ($27,000), movie jukebox is getting sued by DVD Copy Control Association (DVD CCA). The twist to this story is that the DVD CCA is the licensing partner Kaleidescape pays off to have the right to bypass CSS copy-protection technology used by DVDs when making “bit-for-bit” copies for storage on the movie server, which are then available for in-home network distribution and viewing."
Can't someone tell the DVD Copy Control Association that biting the hand that feeds it (or them) is always a recipe for disaster!? This whole thing just looks plain ironic. :roll:
