The idea was born from a car AUDI A5! Yes from GERMAN AUDI car! : D
You wonder how a car has helped t develop WODE?
The answer is the Jukebox Function of the Audi A5! Jukebox with 10 GB of memory for music files"
The system of Audi MMI Navigation Plus allows you to insert a CD and transfer any audio to HDD, preserving the original audio CD and reading the content instead copied on Hard Disk without further problems.
We wondered if AUDI distributes its own MMI system which allows you to copy any audio disc onto HDD Why can’t we do the same with WII?
The response has been WODE.
WODE is legal, allows you to take the most of your playground without BYPASSING DRM PROTECTION, it emulates in every way a DVD player including the DRM function which is not being bypassed in anyway!
Unlike VIDEOGAMES WODE behaves differently, WODE is a bridge interface between the data bus for WII DVD DRIVE and LINUX nothing more.
