SlySoft Inc. is a software company located in the capital city St. John's in Antigua and Barbuda. Its products consist of software to copy CDs, DVDs, HD DVDs, and Blu-ray Discs.
SlySoft was the first to offer AACS circumvention that worked for any disc available; previous programs only cracked "compatible" discs using a database of known keys. On November 8, 2007, SlySoft claimed to have completely cracked BD+ (previously said to be unbreakable for "at least 10 years").[1] However, this was not entirely accurate. The crack allowed a user to copy a BD to the harddrive and play it back from there using only a specific version of Cyberlink's PowerDVD, but not to transcode, otherwise manipulate the content or play it back from a burned BD-R or BD-RE.
