HD Copy Protection Workaround Discovered

"German computer magazine C't has discovered that PC owners only need to hit the Print Screen button to capture a frame of a HD DVD or a Blu-ray Disc movie and that means that any programmer could create a script that captures the screen 30 times per second to enable a lossless capture of the video frames.
