This will allow some "other" company or entity to release this utility, while CloneDVD is kept away from any legal hassles regarding decrypting CSS.

Am I close?
Pretty.

BTW, RegionKiller is obsolete and discontinued, because the new beast does remove region codes - even with RPC2 drives -, user prohibitions, macrovision, etc. as well. RegionKiller only caused trouble, because nobody understood, that you needed a RPC1 drive for it to work.
