A peek into the curious world of HDMI copy protection

Now there is also the Cinavia analogue audio watermarking system for protecting content, which seems to be quite robust.

Slysoft intends to release a product that negates it, but I am unaware of any success so far. There have been work-arounds for the PS3 though.

The doom9 forum thread can be a good place to read about it.

Cinavia has been in my sights for a while. Every once in a while, I end up rereading the main patent and doing research, and it looks like a formidable challenger. I'd really like to take it on, if I ever had free time; it's been a while since I've done DRM reversing, and it's ridiculously well designed, thus fun.

That doesn't prevent ripping, does it? Just playing back burned discs. I don't know anyone who burns the movies they download onto DVDs (or whatever) before watching them.
