I don't understand why you blame the format. The studios are the culprits, they are the ones that would not sign up unless the DRM was in place and who would want it if your favorite movies were not available? The ultimate decision about DRM is on the studios. They can release a movie with full analog res or not. It will be clearly marked on the box. So you can make the decision not to buy it. But if you have an older TV without HDCP I would bet that it doesn't have the capability to display over 550 lines anyways so no real loss. If you don't believe me ask a ISP tech to test it for you.

I hate DRM but it doesn't compare to how much I love HD movies. For the past 3 years I watch more TV than movies just because of the HD factor and I for one can't wait to go back to movies even if it means I have to live with DRM (at least until it is cracked).
