According to SlySoft, yes! They claim they were able to crack the Blu-ray BD+ protection enabling anyone, using their newest software called AnyDVD HD, to copy all Blu-ray disc content. Are Movies studios already having cold sweats? Probably, as one of the reasons given for choosing Blu-ray over HD-DVD was the copy protection.

The movie industry has tried unsuccessfully for years to eliminate disc copying and Blu-ray’s BD+ was designed to be impenetrable. Mr. Peer van Heuen , head of High-Definition technologies at SlySoft, stated: “We are rather proud to have brought back to earth the highly-praised and previously ‘unbreakable’ BD+. However, we must also admit that the Blu-ray titles released up to now have not fully exploited the possibilities of BD+. Future releases will undoubtedly have a modified and more polished BD+ protection, but we are well prepared for this and await the coming developments rather relaxed.” It is funny how he seems to be saying to BD+ encryption developers “BRING IT ON! We will crack it.”

Come on people! Let’s face it; there will always be piracy and illegal copy of movies but I am sure we have not seem the end of this fight.
