Apple Bends to Studios, Adds Copyright Protection to MacBooks
Apparently, Apple has added HDCP to the new MacBooks, making it impossible to play videos purchased from iTunes on unauthorized external displays. This is really disappointing, to say the least. Instead of spending time locking down their content, movie companies should be looking for new avenues of distribution, like sites similar to Hulu. Make it easy to legally watch content, and people will do it! Make it difficult to watch content you paid for, and people will pirate even more.
