Questions to Ask

Chris picked up on the some recent commotion with regard to DVD encryption standards. The important question to look at is, are consumers really ready to upgrade all their movies yet again? Personally, I doubt it, especially when the quality advances on DVD still cannot yet be taken advantage of by the casual consumer (high end AV bufs need not apply).

That's interesting. I expect most people wouldn't really feel the need to upgrade. One trick, though, is that new material will come out first (or only) on the new disks, so the tech will be useful for that if nothing else.
