From what I've seen this so called actively engaged in developement solutions has so far been in taking away customer's flexibility and choices.
I guess in 2008 restrictions are the new freedoms ;-)

Its amazing that your can read the whole article but pick out Sony name out the bunch.I will tell you like i tell everyone else if you or anyone don't like content protection stop whining & don't buy the product.No one got a gun to you head to buy there product.I get so tired of all these BS DRM is taking my right treads.My god you guys are worried more about DRM than really life things like terrorism or Global warming.

I love wireless however they would need to make it like blutooth or infrared because if its like a wireless router that looses its signal then it will be not very user friendly. I will wait for this to hit the stores and i am sure there will initially be bugs that will need to be ironed out.

NexGen76 did i strike a nerve oh im so sorry. for the average user drm is no threat, but for me and can make it a very bad choice, however drm can be broken,
now to the problim i have with drm on this device, is this not a simple HD type wireless router. Why would i in a bussines mind need some body like the MPAA or RIAA Protecting my company from hackers. the only reason i was sarcastic earler was that this is a wireless device that other wireless communication devices such as router or wireless security devices can look up too to advance upon. DRM protecting this device will only slow down ecological developement on souch devices.
Im just saying its a shame that such a device should be locked up so early in the game.
So im sorrry if i upset you NexGen76

With regard to safety, the MPAA is doing their part to ensure that these connections remain protected for the consumer. "The major motion picture studios are actively engaged in the development of innovative new solutions that give consumers greater flexibility and more choices for how and where they access and enjoy movies and television shows," said Jim Williams, Senior Vice President and Chief Technology Officer for the Motion Picture Association of America. "As this process evolves it is imperative to foster a secure environment that protects this high-value content from rampant theft and illegal redistribution. WirelessHD has worked closely with us in meeting these critical goals, and we are encouraged by WirelessHD's commitment to foster content protection
in the wireless, digital age
ali not only does this device do video in this qoute it clearly state's it is a new type of wireless device.

Once developed into consumer devices, it can feed a wide range of products from HDTVs to camcorders to gaming consoles.
and no its not. its coperated into the WiHD specs itself. there is no need for drm. WPA2 would be strong enough to keep my neighbor at bay.
