dont forget, that you need _NOT_ have actual decryption in your hardware to be able to still play bluray.
what you meant to say is: "to be able to cater to the moronity of hollywood and some really ugly bluray players too lazy to decrypt themselves, WE have taken it upon ourselves to bend over, but dont worry, you, as a customer, get to bend even FURTHER.."
an elcheapo elcheap cheap celeron 1.6ghz can do 65MiB/s AES 256bit decryption on 1 core using an ordinary implementation, which i know for a fact can be optimized more.
this is the slowest kind of cpu you will find ANYONE having, and the slowest on the market (save of atom, but hah, you are NEVER EVER gonna sell amd graphics for those system!!!).
going further, i seem to recall(but dont hang me up on this) that bluray encryption is actually only 128bit - im no specialist in that area, but i would imagine this would make it faster.. BUT, for the sake or argument, ill ignore that.
i believe the highest bitrate you are ever going to find on a bluray disc or hddvd disc is somewhere around 50 megabits, actually i think smaller, because most of the ASIC's for decoding only specifies up to 41/47 mbits.. the personal highest 1080p h264 file i have peaks at 48mbit..
so.. at this point we gotta decode 6.25MiB/s of data at the peak times, on our cpu.. thats around 10% of ONE core on the slowest system you get today, and its peak values, and its ignore blatant things such as further optimized decryption and 128bit vs 256bit.
Then you could have your hardware ONLY do the actual decoding, and not care about this horribly small UNIMPORTANT matter
then applications such as powerdvd and such shit, can focus on bending over in hollywood, while you can deliver what PEOPLE actually want..
and before you start mentioning "trusted path" and crap.. thats bullshit :P we can play the format, we can pirate it. we can ALL. besides, you could just tell the morons in hollywood that its "ALL SECURE", and they'd believe you, they always do with the drm morons..
