Re: I think there is a place for it

"Doesn't that require the purchase of some sort of "box"? As in a DVD player?"

Except as I understand it, it's a lot different from a regular card reader. If I had to buy a prioritized DVD player that would only play their content, then no, I wouldn't have one of those. If they can get their cards to run on any card reader, then that's a different situation. It just seems like they have to create a number of solutions to a number of obstacles, most of which probably don't need to be their in the first place.

If, however, the content you load onto the card could be keyed to an account and software on your playback device, then that might be a more workable approach. But special tech to make it function will almost certainly kill it.

Anyone remember Circuit City's DIVX fiasco?
