[QUOTE="BarMoo, post: 182128, member: 175089"] Points taken spiney. Its early days, but, if its any consolation to Shahid, this is what SKY have said. If SKY want to increase churn ten-fold they'll implement HDCP on every HD channel. I reckon many who will sign-up to SKY HD will have non HDCP compliant kit. As such, I'll hazzard a guess that SKY will only zap HDCP on the movie channels - as and when it suits them (much like their Macrovision policy). Mark. Totally OT. BlueRay announced that their discs will NOT employ the forced down-res rule on the component o/p (for the time being). I'll just add: think of a company that pushed expensive plasmas and LCD's to the masses a few years back (without HDCP support) - also owns two movie studios - and is a founder of BlueRay? That's right, SONY. Since Sony have done enough to piss people off with DRM restrictions - their BlueRay announcement comes as a pleasant suprise:D [/QUOTE]
