Movie Industry May Drop HDCP Until 2012 >

	Apparently top movie studios are looking to delay the HDCP copy protection system for four to six years. This would mean that all movie content produced until 2010 at the earliest, and possibly as far as 2012, will not carry the Image Constraint Token - a security feature which would restrict high-definition playback only to equipment with HDMI ports and HDCP. This may be why Xbox630 and PS3 do not currently require HDMI for HD Video output. >Link

Who knows they might just drop it completly

MS's crappy lack of HDMI support, and Sony not supporting an HDMI port on the cheaper SKU is putting the right kind of pressure on the HDCP gods if you ask me. I'm sure there are folks out there without hdmi ports, or only 1 that is already being used by a cable box or satelite box.

This makes the HD-DVD strap on that much more attractive for the 360.

Those Studios are SONY'sI mentioned another article that mentioned this same topic a while ago...and Gamersreporters editors thought it not worthy news....I wonder why? Tell us something new...I mean the fanboys here are having a dry spell.
