SlySoft is gone,Passkey is still here to defend your Fair Use right

• SlySoft's Unexpected Shutdown
• To the Blu-ray backup software makers and
  those who own stacks of Blu-ray discs at home,
  the past two weeks can be tough. As of Feb. 24,
  SlySoft, known to many as the RedFox who is the
  author of the popular decrypting software AnyDVD
  and AnyDVD HD, was forced by the AACS-LA, the
  licensing body of the copy-protection system
  applied on the commercial Blu-ray discs, to cease
  operations, and when landing on its website, all
  could be seen was a short message that reads
  "Due to recent regulatory requirements we have
  had to cease all activities relating to SlySoft
  Inc. We wish to thank our loyal customers/clients
  for their patronage over the years."
• Is It a Total Game Over to the Business?
• SlySoft's sudden shutdown causes immediate
  concerns and speculations among its customers!
  Many are worrying that if AnyDVD HD fails to make
  a comeback, does it mean this business is totally
  game over? Absolutely not! Actually, equally as
  legendary as the red fox might be, DVDFab Passkey
  used to go through exactly the same course two
  years ago. The only difference is that Passkey
  finally survives, not because of its lucky birth
  place, but its first-class features, commitment
  and dedication to the customers over years. Even
  the former AnyDVD HD followers looking for an
  alternative way out, after giving Passkey a
  tryout, are quite impressed by what Passkey is
  capable of, see the screenshots below.

• There have long been rumors that Passkey
  takes the advantage of AnyDVD HD to do its work.
  The above comments should prove those rumors
  indefensible assumptions. The truth is that
  DVDFab has a lot of first-class technologies of
  its own, like the StealthyClone, Lightning
  Shrink, Cinavia Removal, Lightning-Recoding ,
  .miniso, Intel Quick Sync, NVIDIA CUDA AMD APP,
  BD Shrink, BDInfo, Meta Info, and so on and so
  on Passkey, absorbing several of those
  technologies, is actually one of the best sellers
  of all time from DVDFab. Thus, if there is such
  an option on the table, why not take it? The
  chance is that Passkey is being offered at 30
  off on the 1-year subscription for the time
  being. If you are a former AnyDVD HD user, there
  is an extra surprise!

• Probe into AACS-LA's Plan behind the Incident
• What the AACS-LA, along with its entire
  consortium, is trying to do is quite obvious.
  They want movie consumers to re-purchase their
  discs whenever the originals get scratched over
  time, damaged, or lost, so that they can make
  more profit. To that end, they will rack their
  brains to crack down AnyDVD HD and the likes
  without a single mercy, and in the meantime, to
  defend themselves, they do find a self-righteous
  excuse to carry out their disgraceful plans in
  the name of fighting against piracy and copyright
  infringement.
• Well, speaking of honoring the copyright
  act, let's do not forget, which AACS-LA
  intentionally neglects, the Fair Use Act. The
  Fair Use Act grants people the right to make
  backup copies of copyrighted materials (in this
  case, the legally purchased commercial DVD and
  Blu-ray discs) without obtaining the advance
  permission from the issuing party, as long as the
  backup copies are for non-profit home use
  purposes, which in this case may include, hard
  copies made to prevent the originals from being
  scratched or damaged, rips or conversions made
  for enjoying on personal computers and mobile
  devices, and other things alike.

• What AACS-LA and its behind-scene
  supporters should learn over time is, simply by
  cracking down a software maker does not and will
  not in the future change the fact that is nothing
  wrong in the first place. On the contrary, things
  might just go to the opposite, it may finally put
  itself in an awkward situation which may stop
  consumers from buying more DVDs and Blu-rays in
  the future, or even push them to torrent site
  just to boycott, because there is a good reason
  for that, like one of the AnyDVD HD users
  commented, "If they (AACS-LA) don't allow me to
  protect my investment (in this case, the legally
  purchased DVDs and Blu-rays), why should I care
  about theirs?" If this is the case, what's
  meaning of AACS-LA being so aggressive? Shutting
  down the software makers only to hurt the disc
  sales and promote piracy to some extent,
  officially? This is absolutely not that they
  should have in mind!
• Does SlySoft Have a Counter Plan?
• Does SlySoft have a backup plan to make a
  return in the future? It seems that they are
  planning a reborn under the new name of RedFox.
  Whether or not this will work remains to be seen!
