no really? Ok so let me see if I understand this, because the hackers have
unlimited physical access to the hardware and because a key scheme requires
you hand keys out to the hackers, well it's just not possible to make this
work because as soon as you hand out the new keys it's cracked? Is that
what they are now realizing?

Wow. that sounds familiar, I've read something like that before somewhere..

The question now becomes who has time to copy an HD DVD?
