Josh Warner: Check your facts next time, both Blu-ray or HD DVD support Mandatory Managed Copy.

Blu-ray Disc @ Wikipedia:

"Mandatory Managed Copy

Blu-ray Disc also mandates a Mandatory Managed Copy system, which allows users to copy content a limited number of times, but requiring registration with the content provider to acquire the keys needed; this feature was originally requested by HP."

HD DVD @ arstechnica
"Microsoft and Intel noted several "requirements" that they feel HD DVD meets. "Managed Copy," for instance, will allow users to make copies of HD DVD discs for personal use." Link: http://arstechnica.com/news.ars/post/20050927-5355.html

True, Its only a matter of time before HD DVD throws in the towel.

Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.

"What is the best wireless surround sound speaker solution? I have a home theater where running wires is just not feasible. I have my own speakers, so I don't want a system that has speakers with integrated wireless. I've done a far amount of research and have only come across a few companies that even offer a reasonable solution: KEF, Kenwood and Rocketfish. Is there anything else out there? What do you recommend? Thank you!"
