BTW I am a Vista 64 user upgrading to Windows 7 64 an I was tiring of hearing about Windows 7 features for the 200th time a few months ago and with the beta that was out seemingly forever I could care less about any Windows 7 stories unless they involve 1) a price cut or sale deal somewhere 2) MS changed something on the way to retail that hasn't been covered 50 times already.

This particular story is very interesting to me as I would love to have a system in place where i can stream to any device in the best bit-rate for that device with a single purchase that covers all my devices. I know many people hate the idea of know physical media, but at our home we have completely embraced digital distribution in the forms of computer games through Steam (we never buy any computer games on physical media for the last couple of years), through Netflix and Amazon streaming of movie rentals and TV episodes, streaming Hulu and other services, we've purchased a huge collection of content through amazon. We love not having our home cluttered up with physical media and we have yet to have a single problem with accessing any content from anywhere. With three kids in the house it is far, far more beneficial to not have to worry about changing the Barney DVD or the kids scratching it. Now they just scroll through DVD cover art till they see what they want and hit play. ]]>Oct 22nd 2009 9:12AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/10/22/disney-keychest-to-make-buy-once-view-anywhere-movies-a-reality/http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/22/disney-keychest-to-make-buy-once-view-anywhere-movies-a-reality/

But as i said, its all about the number of companies on board. It the content works on the majority of smartphones, media players, consoles and computers it will be great, if it only works on a limited number of devices then its just another annoying DRM scheme]]>Oct 22nd 2009 8:42AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/10/22/disney-keychest-to-make-buy-once-view-anywhere-movies-a-reality/http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/22/disney-keychest-to-make-buy-once-view-anywhere-movies-a-reality/Oct 22nd 2009 10:55AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/10/22/disney-keychest-to-make-buy-once-view-anywhere-movies-a-reality/http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/22/disney-keychest-to-make-buy-once-view-anywhere-movies-a-reality/Oct 22nd 2009 8:57AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/10/22/disney-keychest-to-make-buy-once-view-anywhere-movies-a-reality/http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/22/disney-keychest-to-make-buy-once-view-anywhere-movies-a-reality/The main complain most consumers were making on the net was that DRM prevents them from moving their content in between devices and that they were afraid of losing access to content if the provider goes bust.
This is the step in the right direction to eliminate those fears and also helps to pave the way for a majority download purchasing future.]]>Oct 22nd 2009 9:08AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/10/22/disney-keychest-to-make-buy-once-view-anywhere-movies-a-reality/http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/22/disney-keychest-to-make-buy-once-view-anywhere-movies-a-reality/
Yeah, we should DEFINITELY trust these guys.

Come on people, wake the eff up...]]>Oct 22nd 2009 9:25AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/10/22/disney-keychest-to-make-buy-once-view-anywhere-movies-a-reality/http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/22/disney-keychest-to-make-buy-once-view-anywhere-movies-a-reality/
Only if you pay extra for BD-Live compatible equipment. Even then, good luck finding anyone who has bothered to hook up a non-PS3 Blu-ray player to the internet.]]>Oct 22nd 2009 9:25AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/10/22/disney-keychest-to-make-buy-once-view-anywhere-movies-a-reality/http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/22/disney-keychest-to-make-buy-once-view-anywhere-movies-a-reality/Oct 23rd 2009 9:15AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/10/22/disney-keychest-to-make-buy-once-view-anywhere-movies-a-reality/http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/22/disney-keychest-to-make-buy-once-view-anywhere-movies-a-reality/
The problem is if you don't have net access you can't play your content.

How about we just got back to no DRM instead?]]>Oct 22nd 2009 11:43AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/10/22/disney-keychest-to-make-buy-once-view-anywhere-movies-a-reality/http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/22/disney-keychest-to-make-buy-once-view-anywhere-movies-a-reality/
