No different than the early adopters of HD went through when their TVs had DVI
inputs with no HDCP, then HDMI became the norm and their expensive Plasma
displays became obsolete in less than 4 years.
[Mike] True it's the same kind a shift but why? It's incredible impedance to
market adoption when you make new technology backward incompatible. When we
went from analog to digital - that was inevitable. Since then it became
apparent the best protection for digital content is not HDCP but simple amount
of raw bit rate on the output of baseband HDMI that has to be re-compressed
again for any subsequent pirate distribution. Making new HDCP that is
incompatible to old HDCP is going to slow down adoption considerably.

That means Home theaters installed in 2014 will only be able to view 4K HDCP
2.2 content when they switch the AV receiver 3 or 4 years later - 2017?
