Even more unfortunate for the studios is that without content, there's no revenue. The "no content without DRM" argument is complete bullfeces. Its the MPAA's equivalent of holding their breath until they turn blue in the face.
Its a great sounding threat, but as soon as the devices are ready, and as soon as consumers are ready to put down their money for movies on high-def media, the studios will offer their products for sale, whether or not they got everything they wanted out of the format.
On the other hand, if groups like BluRay and HD-DVD keep checking their balls at the door, walking in backwards, bent-over, pants around the ankles, spreading their cheeks wide, you can be damn sure the studios will keep sticking it to them.
Things were way cooler when Sony's business was making electronics instead of making "precious" collections of 1's and 0's.
