I've got Google's News site setup as my portal and saw this little spew on it as a side note.
A Google search resulted in a whole lot of random stuff, but also this interview with Adam Gervin, VP of marketing for Macrovision, which only mentions it briefly.
I'm surprised that I haven't heard a peep out of anyone either here or on AVSForum about Rip Guard, especially in the htpc sections.
What really jumped out at me in the first article is the claim that, "Rip Guard DVD is a unilateral content protection system that is applied to DVD discs and requires no additional software or hardware to be incorporated into PCs, DVD players or DVD recorders."
Is that even possible and does anybody have any additional info or thoughts?
edit: scratch the part about nobody talking about it. I just saw a 200+ post on AVS about it. Not sure how I managed to miss it.
