Interesting article and concept. I would have liked to know more about how it would interface, if it could, with HD sets/STB's already on the market and purchased by consumers.

-Sigh- Seems like every company in the CE business is pushing a copy-protection "solution". Too bad it's all geared toward paranoid content-providers (read: MPAA) rather than consumers. One can only hope that these standards and devices will be immediately hacked.


Eventually, Hollywood might learn that the situation they have now (everything is freely copyable) won't hurt them in the long run. DVDs are a good example - you can get any one of a dozen or so rippers on the 'net for free, but DVDs continue to break sales records month after month!

BOYCOTT DVI/HDCP & JVC!

This is nothing more than an attempt to grab a piece of the Intellectual Property pie as they aren't one of the 5 in 5C.
