"Security researcher Alex Ionescu claims to have successfully bypassed the much discussed DRM protection in Windows Vista, called 'Protected Media Path' (PMP), which is designed to seriously degrade the playback quality of any video and audio running on systems with hardware components not explicitly approved by Microsoft.

I guess vista is not as secure as they thought

That didn't take long.

I believe that this is Microsoft work, today the number of computers than can play content with protection is very low and Microsoft cannot ship a system less usable than XP in some important parts.
