1. Download movie.
2. Request all no-authorized personnel to leave your living room.
3. Close blinds (to stop outsiders seeing in).
4. Active white noise generator outside the room (to stop anyone outside hearing the movie).
5. Check in using the TV set's retinal scanner.
6. Provide blood sample for DNA analysis for cross-matching against registered downloader.
7. Take phone off the hook (if you get interrupted, tough - you can't pause or rewind.
8. After movie, wait while data files are deleted (using NSA 7-pass overwrite).
9. Remember that you signed a legally binding agreement not to discuss the movie with anyone...]]>Sep 4th 2007 8:02AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/09/04/sonys-video-download-cards-revealed/http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/04/sonys-video-download-cards-revealed/]]>Sep 4th 2007 9:16AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/09/04/sonys-video-download-cards-revealed/http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/04/sonys-video-download-cards-revealed/
Hopefully, any video service for the PS3 can follow this route. However, the NBC/Apple fight was about DRM (according to NBCs rebuttal of Apple's accusation of doubling retail price of DLs). So who knows if studios will allow their content to be distributed on systems with light DRM.]]>Sep 4th 2007 10:17AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/09/04/sonys-video-download-cards-revealed/http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/04/sonys-video-download-cards-revealed/Sep 4th 2007 9:58AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/09/04/sonys-video-download-cards-revealed/http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/04/sonys-video-download-cards-revealed/
Here are some docs to view, to give you a sense of what Sony has in the works. Looks like the box will only work with compatible 2007 Bravias (in addition to HDMI connection to the TV, there is also an XMB connection to the XMB menua bar interface - the only way to interact with the box.

Perhaps Sony will try to one up the AppleTV?

People constantly use the pathetic DRM excuse to attack anything Sony does. Gorgeous new Bravia? No thanks, their DRM policy pi$$es me off. Scrapped CONNECT allowing you to use a myriad selection of other services? No thanks, their DRM .... etc etc ad nauseum ad infinitum.

If Sony cured cancer and gave the technology away free you'd still all complain about DRM and "proprietary technology".]]>Sep 4th 2007 6:14PM
