This means that they're trying to deny you the right to even WATCH the material you paid for. These ***** are so ignorant that they think component video cables are going to lead to an explosion of piracy because they aren't encrypted.Never mind that the analog signals are UNCOMPRESSED, and thus unwieldy to capture and bulky when they are captured.And never mind the fact that these interconnects have been in use FOR YEARS.It's just incredible that they're still bitching about this. If nothing else, they're actually drawing MORE attention to whatever it is they fear. If they don't have anything else to worry about, Congress should send them packing and never waste OUR time and money listening to their whining again. Because clearly there are businesses with more pressing and LEGITIMATE problems that deserve our time.
