HDMI, the Manchurian DRM - a Broadcast Flag dormant until 2010

From Boing Boing. Here is Linky

Secret back room deals? Microsoft and othe hardware giants convince key Hollywood film producers to keep the HDMI flag dormant for the next 5 - 10 years while consumers purchase compatable HDMI enabled players. PURE COMMUNISM!!

Lex Luthor was right... - too bad he couldn't stop Superman from making Nevada beach front property.
