There just aren't enough HDCP-enabled pro devices on the market, because the consortium is excessively protective of its stupid-ass DRM scheme.
No, it's because the DRM scheme requires the HDCP all the way to the end device (projector or monitor). In the real world we're not using HDMI inputs on projectors because of cable length issues (among other things.) There is no practical way to get HDCP encumbered HDMI switched and then distributed amongst multiple projectors and confidence monitors in the typical corporate meeting environment.
Maybe this will finally make HDMI manageable for audio/visual crews when faced with multiple HDCP encumbered HDMI sources that need to switched and/or crossfaded in real time. Right now it is damn near impossible to implement any form of HDMI switching due to the ridiculous handshake times needed when protected HDMI sources see changes in the destination. Currently the only way to handle it is with a black market HDMI to component converter which introduces often unacceptable video delays in addition to requiring multiple Digital-to-Analog and Analog-to-Digital transitions along the way.
This year I'm likely to rear-project their lightning loop near my front door, and run 2 LCD TVs with the eyeball loop in the windows of two separate rooms facing the street. (yes, the house is alive!)
Audio is important too, and once again I'll be running this track through speakers and extra subwoofers (real ones, not home ones) hidden on my property: http://itunes.apple.com/us/album/halloween/id289650473 There is no better sound effects package than one made by Hollywood Foley Effects artists. It's fun to watch the parents freaking out even more than their kids are.
I know that the vast majority of my edits are vandalism reversion, but I would bet that of the 4.5 edits per second mentioned in the summary, probably 3 of those are pure vandalism.
Furthermore, how many of those edits are overwriting legitimate, accurate content that the all-knowing editors deem to be "unsuitable" for article inclusion?
Funny, the "suitability" guidelines are quite simple, and generally not subjectively applied.
Goods on the black market are either illegally obtained (stolen), illegally distributed, or just plain illegal.
Since iPads have Wifi and (often) 3G transmitters in them, sale and use is subject to a particular country's version of the FCC. The term "black market" would seem to apply here. Apple has to as least appear to be controlling the destination of the units they sale in order to stay out of trouble with the governing bodies of countries they would like to sell these items in eventually.
Judging from the audience for the highly personalized "news" network named Fox News, I'd say yes. Fox News tells a specific group of people exactly what they want to hear, not what needs to be known. It surprises me that they are still allowed to use the word "News" in their name.
This critic is the type of person who has destroyed entertainment in general. Sports have become nearly unwatchable with the announcers straining to fill every millisecond with the sound of their voices. Movies are becoming overloaded with audio cues and monologues. Even the news has become a cacophony of zings and bleeps and sweeping noises.
In music, the rests are as important as the notes. This is true elsewhere as well. I hope the people at NASA understand this and keep things the way they are.
ASCAP is not the "music industry." ASCAP (and BMI, et al) are directly connected to the content creators themselves. You know, the people who actually deserve to be paid for their creativity.
The American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers (ASCAP) is a not-for-profit performance rights organization that protects its members' musical copyrights by monitoring public performances of their music, whether via a broadcast or live performance, and compensating them accordingly.

So their standards are not affecting your ability to counter violent Jewish, Christian, or other religious extremism online?

How many of those edits are reverting vandalism?

Why not take the time to improve and correct the articles? It's not that difficult.
Welcome to Slashdot
NO WAY! Someone really said that? In public?!? ^_-
The early bird gets the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese.
No they don't. Get over yourselves.

The consumer will. The consumer ultimately determines the value of any item sold.
Nope. They never had a chance anyway, as their audience doesn't need to be told what to think.
Thank you for so eloquently proving my point.

That's art.
It doesn't matter, and nothing we think on this subject matters anyway.

The naughties.
No matter how much AT&T sucks, Verizon will always lead the competition in that category.

Your anti-RIAA rants don't apply here.
I agree with this suggestion.
You know she only cleans this thoroughly when she's angry, so we'd damn well better behave until this blows over.
