A truly sad day.  :'( :( :'(
DVD Decrypter has been shut down forever due to cease and desist orders and legal threats from an unidentified company.

Very suprising actually.
DVD Decrypter is one of the longest standing DVD ripping tools.

Well I dunno, it was an incredibly popular way of defeating protection on DVDs. The fact that it was such a  great product and had lots of users would have made it a big threat to certain companies. So in my eyes, its not a huge surprise that this happened, but it is a shock...

Actually, Lightning himself made oft. suggestion that he was surprised that this didn't happen sooner, given the fame and popularity of the application.

The development of it has halted but its still floating around... If a new encryption method is released we will need to look for alternatives.
