Hi Ron, 
thanks for the info. So most of these talk about a net connection to my
HD player? Who's going to pay for that? Why would I connect a player to
the 'net? And if I was going to smoke crack and connect it, it will spy
on what I am doing and then nuke the player, update it without my
approval or call the RIAA police force? Are they going to discontinue
DVDs anytime soon? If no, I'll stick with those and live with the lesser
of two evils.
Cheers,
Kev
