Count their blessings? I think you misunderstand how exactly SlySoft makes their money. If the decryption methods were standard and unchanging, there would be numerous free tools out there and no market. The studios are actually creating the market for SlySoft. The more money they throw at different schemes, the more users rely on SlySoft's software. Case in point, look at DVD: DVD Shrink, DVD Fab, RipIt4Me, etc. are all free tools that work equally well on most DVDs. If the entire purpose was simply to complicate SlySoft's job, then the boastful statements regarding BD+'s prowess were simply idiotic. As far as "as much time between a disk's release and it being breaked as possible", like the article clearly states, this version of BD+ isn't even expected to debut until February. I'm having a hard time seeing any logic in any points in your post.
