The keys are supposedly revokable and renewable. That isn't to say they
can't be hacked but rather that they've obviously thought about past
copy-protection schemes which failed. BTW, MS and other tech companies
are very involved in putting together this scheme, not just the studios.

As for Chinese piracy, supposedly for Blu-Ray, the discs will have to
have a BD-ROM mark of some kind. Plus the prohibitive costs of Blu-Ray
replication may discourage the Chinese pirates, at least initially.

HD-DVD on the other hand touts how cheaply production lines could be
upgraded from DVD production lines.
