    This will work to strip the DRM, but it doesn't solve the problem for those of use with HDTVs which only use component inputs. Besides, this will require constant updates since the content producers will be shutting it down weekly with new DRM code.

  5. It's not just HD DVD but BluRay too! by timbob_com · · Score: 2, Informative · on HD DVD to Screw Early HDTV Adopters

    Blu Ray will also suffer this down-conversion fate. This makes my TV useless for any new technology as I am sure all future technologies will implement this restriction. Let's see, average disc cost = $20 for HD DVD I would probably buy 100 - 150 the first year alone. Hollywood loses out on $2000 - $3000 from me, the first year alone. http://www.inaniloquent.com/PermaLink.aspx?guid=47 5bef13-f44d-4f70-b922-9c07d8ea632f

    With the funding available to these innovators, there is no reason why they cannot modify their designs as necessary. They have tremendous support and an enormous financial backing. I highly doubt they are only able to contemplate "scaling up" their current design.

    Lets not waste taxpayer money by forcing multiple versions of an application that will shortly become cross-browser compatible anyhow. This crowd is unbelievable. http://www.inaniloquent.com/PermaLink.aspx?guid=84 e78f4e-60e6-4e9f-9233-9457dbe196b8

  9. You are right, it is moronic by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 0 · on PC Makers See Little Reason to Deploy XP N

    The new version of windows offers no benefit to the end user or PC manufacturers. It was meant to provide benefit to companies like REAL, who completely failed to establish the necessary contracts with PC manufacturers to bundle RealPlayer with WindowsN. Now they don't stand a chance.
