Re: Wireless Home Theater Now if we could only get the movie industry to "allow" us to legally (and easily) move our DVD content from the discs to computers. (By "allow" I mean consumer grade software or devices that don't get sued out of existence by the MPAA.)
Imagine bringing home a new DVD and putting it into your Home Video Server. The HVS rips your DVD to a file and shares it (video, menus, extras and all) with any TV in that home that has a Wireless Home Video Receiver connected to it.
Right now I rarely buy DVDs because they get watched once and then wind up sitting on the shelf in unorganized stacks. It would be much better to be able to put the movie into some sort of home On-Demand system. Unfortunately, the movie industry is so busy worrying about the five people that would pirate the movies to see the income potential of the five hundred who would buy and watch more movies.

There are standards for legally streaming protected content. See:
»en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DTCP
At the time we looked into it it was only allowed over a wired network. |
