New DVD-Audio music releases and talk about the latest players.

Re: OK, but..

It is much harder to reverse engineer a codec than the BIOS of a PC, which is difficult enough. And besides, as I said earlier, if you want to make a legal DVD player, you have to license the mandatory technology. Those are the rules set up by the DVD Forum. There is no financial incentive to go outside of the rules.

Look at it this way...do you think the 8 bucks you pay to go see a movie has anything to do with the cost of the paper in the ticket stub you get to keep?

Do you think the $120 you pay for a DVD player is just for a box of parts?
