Where's the site?  I'm sure some of us might be interested
if we can see whether we care about the content.

Thanks for the legal advice.  cryptome still has decss.zip (and I'm
damned happy they do).  Nearly every other site with it caved to MPAA

their upstream provider requires some more details.
