"For a regular DVD player, the required licenses (DVD Forum, MPEG-2, Macrovision, Dolby, DTS, HDMI, et cetera, et cetera) is about $150,000 up front with $50,000 per year renewals. Plus another 10% of the wholesale price of the player to the patent holders."Wow! Makes you wonder how a small volumn manufacturer can justify production of a DVD player? My guess is that with the spectre of high definition digital on (or just peeking above) the horizon we'll soon seen the demise of high-end DVD players.
