![]() And then being able to add my own 'cinavia' like data to the stream. What does interest me is rather than removing cinavia from a stream, is actually reading cinavia from a stream. That $ony are right on board with Verance and Cinavia comes as absolutely no surprise. I also have a damn good laugh when they pay top dollar for a system that bugs out with some DRM issue that my cheapie no-name brand cobbled together system works just fine with! I know people who (sadly) only buy $ony because of their reputation in quality. They continually push their own proprietry formats (beta, mini-disc, memorystick, DAT, and the list goes on) and don't allow other manufacturers (with incredibly few exceptions) to make equipment that uses their technology. I personally will NEVER buy a $ony product. Just think back slightly to the '$ony rootkit fiasco'. It comes as absolutely no surprise that they are one of the main perpertrators in the DRM scene. None other than a large studio could afford what they charge! Perhaps I should have taken out shares.Īm I the only one that finds it interesting / disturbing that $ony is the ONLY company that not only makes content (movies/music) but also makes technology (players/recorders). :pįrom my reading on the matter, the licencing fees that Verance charges are truly extraordinary! Like 10K to 300K, and then per film and per disc charges on top of that. Though I do find this "irreversible" protection scheme intriguing. ![]() Myself, I don't even give it much thought. ![]() ![]() If ALL the companies were suddenly using it, there would exist an even larger need, to circumvent it. But then, perhaps the other companies are being asked to pay a ridiculous sum of money to employ it? One thing's for sure. Hopeful thinking? Conspiracy theory? Perhaps. I suspect other companies may be aware of a possible circumvention. I find it rather interesting, that $ony is the only company massively supporting Cinavia. ![]()
