"'Advanced Access Content System (AACS) keys are integrated into your PC for copy protection purposes,' Toshiba says, in application notes for its latest GV35-AV60 Qosmio notebook. 'Occasional renewal of the AACS key is required, and easily done by connecting to the Internet. Toshiba will provide AACS key renewal for your new PC for 5 years from the date of purchase by the original purchaser at no charge, after which key renewal will be available pursuant to the software player provider's then current terms and conditions.'"
