New Consortium to Push UDI and Include DRM

MarsGov writes "Intel, Apple, Samsung, LG, Nat Semi and Silicon Image formed a consortium to promote Unified Display Interface (UDI) as the new standard to connect computers to monitors and TVs. UDI will be HDMI and HDCP "anti-piracy" compatible. "

HDCP

HDCP protection you say? Good thing it's already been broken [macfergus.com] (albeit anonymously). Coming new to you, DRM'd speakers, and your very own set of ContentProtection ((TM)) eyelids!

Sounds cool

I'd love if there were a DRM system that worked invisibly and was effective at both stopping piracy as well as permitting fair usage.

That would be awesome.

DMR bad...

My wife got me a new pair of glasses last week and now when I look at another woman's boobs they look pixilated. Damn DRM...
