Goodbye Windows Screencasting.

Of course the closer this is tied to hardware, the more of a nightmare
this will become for *everyone* on *all* platforms. Could be an opening
for smaller companies to muscle in on the big boys, offering less
"restrictive" hardware. If it comes down to a choice between my Freedom
or some fancy-pants new graphics technology, I know where my money's
going, especially if said fancy-pants technology is nothing but a Trojan
Horse used to deploy the anti-Freedom bomb.

That particular "hypocrite" has pulled in a large bucket of cash for the RIAA, or have they forgotten?

You can get company's to make less restrictive hardware but without the DRM things like blue ray won't work on them.

The so called High Value content.
