&gt; The mechanism is there in HDMI to say &quot;this Blu-Ray only works on Samsung TVs that are less than 6 months old.&quot; Imagine what Samsung would pay a studio for that!<p>Imagine what I and probably several other potential viewers would pay for that. Not a cent.<p>The current movie and film situation already is pretty bad, unlike music which I can buy anywhere without DRM. I happily pay for things I enjoy and usually buy 10-20 albums monthly + streaming for preview purposes. With movies these days, I mostly can&#x27;t buy them.<p>Furthermore I don&#x27;t see how the end of DRM has been any problem for the music industry. If they made a mistake it was probably the shift to streaming.
