Grow up. *If* the drive vendor keeps the mechanism secret, you have

All DVD drive manufacturers. That's why nobody could write a driver for

It wasn't the mechanism that was secret so much as the key. CSS was
supposed to protect someone else's data. You wouldn't give the key to
*your* drive away, would you?
