THE BIGGEST ANALOG HOLE EVER
When i watch a film i can actually recored it in my head by burning synaptic pathways. I can replay bits when ever I like and can actually describe bits of the film to friends.
Its a real DRM nightmare for the studios I can tell you.
I'm rather partial to dumb analogies so shall use one here. Imagine designing a fantatstic toaster, the king of toasters. However when buying this bread browning marvel the small print says you can only use it with a specific type of bread, which they happen to bake.
Now whats amazing is that this toaster actually sells, but thats more to do with a market of users who find toasters difficult to use and this new 'toaster king' does it better than most.
Despite all that, the usability, perfect toast etc, I'f find it difficult to buy, knowing I was limited to ONE type of loaf.

Hurrah, we have a winner. Now watch the rolling tumbleweed as literally no one rushes out to invest in Blue-ray.
