Now move to protect HDTV and DVD codecs

Microsoft is going to do everything possible to twist, cheat and delay their way out of this one. "Reduced Media Edition" should come with a reduced price as well. No need for the public to subsidize not just software they don't want, but anti-competitive, illegal softare at that.


While all that is getting sorted out it's time to move on to preventing the same shit from happening with HDTV and DVD. M$ has been angling for a grip on those as well. And while the desktop monopoly lasts, both are in danger. Act now before it gets out of hand again.
