Whilst think me completely anti-DVD-A, I am just uncomprimising on some principles I find objectionable in DVD-A (which i have made clear in other posts).IF I knew which titles were watermarked, I'd start buying in the format, avoiding watermarked titles. My thought was, could we test for watermarks by trying to copy the analog outputs from the DVD-A and playing them in DRM compliant players and seeing if they're detected as copies ?
Are there any programs/players out there at the moment, which have implemented watermark detection ?
There were rumours a while ago published in HiFi choice, that given watermarking was proved inaudible, that Warner was going to quietly drop them ?
