The source got dugg pretty hard! It was being dugg so hard that digg was seeing 40 digs per second on this story! Ultimately digg went down and was showing 404 errors on every story! It was really great to see how strongly people feel about DRM. This key actually enables people to decode legally bought HD-DVD movies on linux, though they are only supposed to be played on windows.

Digg Link

Edit: Digg removed the story again, for the second time!Anyway, its still #4 top story on reddit.

Edit2: Digg founder Kevin gives up
