John,

I am suggesting that they had to have a sense that BD+ was not totally compatible. It's part of the specs now but firmware hasn't been upgraded since it became standard, right? Since it was part of the spec, I'm sure they felt that they did their due diligence.

jason,

while the hd dvd online stuff can be used as a gimmick to get people to buy more things via online stores, at the very least this is not something that is hostile to consumers. i mean, you don't hear the blu-ray camp advertising, "our products have disc protection that won't let you play them!", do you? given their druthers, the blu-ray companies probably want as few consumers as possible to know about BD+.

I don't know of any company who would market to the mass consumer and use "copy protection" was a reason their format was superior. And if there was one, let's just say
