Top 5 ways to spread the HD-DVD key while avoiding a C&D letter

People who send cease-and-desist letters because someone else discovered a way around their poorly designed DRM really piss me off. And people who find ways to spread that knowledge via protected speech are my heroes. Yeah, it's old news by now, but, in keeping with this week's theme, here are the top five ways to spread a certain hexadecimal number without receiving a C&D letter.

1. Write a poem.
2. Or a song.
3. Or a t-shirt.
4. Or a GIF.
5. Or a picture.

Each of the links above is protected speech that contains a number that a certain licensing authority wishes no one knew.
