This consent decree: http://www.usdoj.gov/atr/cases/f1200/1273.htm

David Boies wasn't even praticing law in 1956, as he was only 15  
years old.


The consent decree was lifted in 1996 after 40 years.   http:// 
www.cptech.org/at/ibm/ibm1956cd.html

It took Boies 13 years to get the DoJ to drop the 1969 anti-trust  
lawsuit.  (And even then, IBM continued to have to operate under the  
1956 CD.)

Why wouldn't it be?  Its just software.

You could probably run the MPEG decryption in software.
