There is no way to copy anything from Mark Cuban's HDnet channel, and no way to copy HBOhd, correct? But it is easy to copy off OTA hd programs (D-vhs, Hipix card, etc).


Then why can't Hollywood simply show their stuff only on HDnet or some similar channel, say PPV, that does not allow copying, and end all this bulls**t about DVI on future TV's ???

Because Hollywood wants to be able to shut off your VCR whenever they want to. Only way to do that is to get VCRs they control into everyone's hands. Read this: http://www.miami.com/mld/miami/busin...gy/3218129.htm

People are recording HBO HD.

The point is: HDnet has this "whatever encryption technology" which prevents copying, then Hollywood can simply use this same existing technology, and not have to re-invent another anti-copying device.
