Blu-Ray also promises some added security , making ways for copyright protections. Then again it may be already a well known kind of 'protection"
Blu-Ray Discs can have a uniqe ID written on them to have copyright protection inside the recorded streams. So they say.. BUT a unique ID does not make a copyprotection and there are already websites that claim it is '.. just another RID code ..".
The Recorder Unique Identifier (RID) is a 97-bit code recorded every 100 sectors. It is composed of a brand name identifier, a type number, and a drive serial number. Some recorders such as the Philips CDR870/880 write this RID on their discs to discourage copying.

Cool post, Mr. Belvedere.
Great info on the BD. So, when's the expo on the 130GB CD3?

I thought there were so little reactions, I felt compassion with Mr. Belvedere. So once again: nice article. 



Ok. Great article... but... Why are they using MPEG2? We live in a world where MPEG4 has taken over(divx). All they need to do is creat a MPEG4 for super high resolutions(1080p).
Same with audio. By that time we will have DD10.2 or something like it. Audio should be encoded in WMA8(divx audio) or MP3PRO.
