Seems pointless as far as I'm concerned to limit HD to HDCP compliant
devices, I like the comment here:
Commercial pirates will simply continue to use older equipment, says digital
rights organisation the Electronic Frontier Foundation.

Although not quite true as most of the shows that you can download from the
internet are in HD and some with 5.1 sound as well, and they all come from
satellite with HDCP, just another waste of money as far as I'm concerned,
money that would be better spent on getting better shows to NZ.
