The Toy Story DVD is currently being worked on. They expect to have it out sometime in January. Disney is trying to make sure they put out a good disc. A direct digital transfer (like A Bug's Life), anamorphic widescreen, and lots of extras. It should be good.
I bought a really nice remote for about $130 US. The Home Theater Master SL-9000. It has an LCD display, and will control anything on IR. It has codes for just about every stereo console unit, and if it doesn't you can program it in. It actually provided more functionality for some devices than the remote they came with! It has illumination for all the buttons and LCD too. 4 AAA batteries incl. If you get/build a universal reciever then you're all set for your computer too. Same company also has a touch screen remote coming out soon.
Hi John, I was just wondering what other products might come out of the Q3 engine. Are there others from id and/or other companies lined up to use it yet?
So by providing copyrights, companies are more willing to share their ideas with the rest of the world, because they know that their idea is protected. Without it, companies would never share anything, and adding things to good ideas would not be possible. It's starting to become clear that copyrights do more good than most people realize.
If all copyrights and ideas suddenly became free domain, it would be an economic disaster worse than in the 1930's. People invest in ideas based on the expectation they will make money. Without that expectation, markets would collapse, investment would cease, and nobody would even want to come up with something because somebody else will just steal it. Then again, maybe that's just an extreme.
