It goes back to what I've always said. If they are smart enough to encode (or whatever) a movie to prevent copying; then, someone will figure out a way around it.
I have a friend that owns a satellite / TV repair business and his satellite sales have picked up over the past year. I'm sure the increasing cost of cable and the fact that they are moving some of the channels to digital have a lot to do with that. The cable company is coming over Thursday afternoon to hook me up to internet and the $8.00 twelve channel cable. There's no way I'm paying almost $60 for the next step up. Already been there and done that. The only reason I'm getting the cheap cable is because they give a price break on the internet.
