Intel Confirms HDCP Master Key for Blu-ray Is Real

Via WUSA9.com (Washington DC) -

A spokesman for Intel confirms the HDCP Master Key for Blu-ray released online, is real.

Tom Waldrop, spokesman for Intel says the company has tested the code, and found it to work.

Waldrop says they believe the code was generated using a computer system, and was not leaked by anyone internally. He says to rip Blu-rays using the code, hardware would have to be created. He says it is costly and he believes it is unlikely anyone will use it to rip Blu-rays.

Waldrop says HDCP will continue to be used in Blu-ray discs and is still a secure way to keep people from pirating the movies.
