DeCSS Source Song

Anonymous Coward writes: "http://www.joeysmith.com/~jwecker/ descramble.mp3 This guy put the function void css_descramble(byte *sec,byte *key) from css-descramble.c as lyrics in a song. Is this illegal?" Amusing. And not as painful to listen to as I thought it would be. Well, almost.

  1. Just how ridiculous is this case? by don_carnage · · Score: 4
    If this guy is taken to court on this, then it would further underscore the ridiculous nature of the case itself. Would it be illegal for me to memorize the lyrics?

    btw: The site is either /.ed or down. Oh yeah, and you could piss off a lot of people at once if you used Napster to download the DeCSS source!
