And you think this good ? Sigma Design is taking is customer for *cash COW*:
They said , we will not release ANY infos about our current card, but we will develope new card for use with the linux operating system...
And all people which already have a card must buy a new one.... This is called business:-(
I will *NEVER* buy any sigma design card. People should boycot sigma.
Do you understand what bit-to-bit copy mean ? it simply mean : dd if=/dev/hdd of=mydvd_backup This will be an ***exact*** (bit-to-bit) copy of the content of the disc... In order to play it : just reap mydvd_backup content onto a DVD, this isn't possible at this time cause there isn't DVD writter ( maybe i'm wrong here ) availlable to customer.. Or just use a player and make it assume that mydvd_backup is a plain dvd...
This is becoming crazy !!! When does people will understand that the so called CSS is nothing for copy protection, but is a commercial thing !!! It was said more than 100 times : if someone want to copy a DVD just make a bits to bits copy !!! CSS was just created in order to restrict company that can offer a DVD player and make them pay royalty... This is really becoming a money problem, and the company which carry complaint have really many monney... Stop this : at the next DVD hearing for the CSS case, just show to the judge that CSS is nothing but bullshit, show them that a bits to bits DVD copy is possible, even without knowing anything to CSS...
Slashdot Mirror
not funny
democracy is dead
The difference between you and the major number
of slashdot poster is that they aren't politized.
and they aren't idiot
unfortunnaly you are.
Ok, what i'm gonna propose
is to organize a meeting in norway,
the maxmimum number of person should come,
to discuss what we can do,
and do it...
I'm personnaly living in france,
and i'm ready to come.
The reason why they took is cellular phone
is probably that the company which comply
involved computer hacking.
Ok, fine for you, you're a cash cow... However i doubt that to be a cash cow will help thing to advance...
