Look, I'm not happy about what's going on but I will point out there is currently a huge tug-of-war going between software/hardware developers and content providers. It's happening across the board in most media formats---radio, tv, music, and movies. It is going to take a while before all this stuff is sorted out and whilst it's perhaps a bit satisfying to give voice to one's feelings and opinions, the likelihood is that it's not going to change much of what's going on. Posts like Nathkrul's really aren't productive and do nothing except feed his own trollishness and maybe incite a few others to do the same. The Googles, Hulus, Comcasts, and, yes, Logitechs, etc. of the world are going to be the ones setting the new paradigms. Hopefully they'll keep the interests of their customers at the fore during this process, but probably the best and only thing we can reaonably hope to do is sit back, have a beer, observe carefully (so you don't buy a Beta instead of Vhs), and see what's going to eventually shake out over the next year or two. It'll certainly be interesting, if not satisfying. -- rgro Rick System information ------------------------ Main: PS Audio Quintet > Touch (wireless) > CA DacMagic > Marantz PM8003 > VA Mozart Grands > REL Acoustics R305.
