Latest I have read is that the CSS encryption is the problem and the Movie makers are against having it and want something better, and not wanting to produce in a bunch of different formats, too costly for them. However they realize that they would make too many enemies doing away with Regular DVD in the beginning as most consumers are not willing to spend on the new formats. So the latest thing is dual format discs with regular and HD formats on one disc. Once the all the players finally decide on what to do with the discs and encryptions, the gates will open.....
