So broadcast TV currently broadcasts on ATSC 1.0. You get an antenna and a box or TV that has a digital tuner and you're good. Industry is pushing for ATSC 3.0, which allows for DRM. So even though they are broadcasting on the public airwaves, they can decide you can't watch. It sets up the local broadcasters to be the new cable with ever increasing prices AND play king maker on devices by choosing which can and cannot produce tuners. In my area, 5 channels have ATSC 3.0, and 1 of them turned on DRM. Meaning I can't watch it because HDHomeRun devices aren't approved, likely because it has the ability to record. Luckily, that channel still broadcasts in ATSC 1.0, so I can still watch it for now. 3.0 isn't a fully adopted yet, but that can change in the future (2027?).

Pay attention boys and girls, this is also what they want to do with over the air broadcasts with the ATSC 3.0 format.
Something that can't be taken away from you by the whims of an artist, studio, or streaming service. Something you can re-rip as audio codexes change.
Would that work for Blu-ray? I'm guessing not.
MakeMKV to rip them from disc. Handbrake if you need to compress them.
They're just waiting around until China and Russia tells them they need the extra distraction. If NK starts attacking Japan/SK, expect China to follow with a Taiwan invasion shortly after.
Half? That's optimistic.
Hyperloop did exactly what Musk intended.
The future our Republicans want.
It's not hardware on Android I want. I want pure Android on these phones. All these overlays and additional OS bits from these companies highlights why they aren't good software companies.
Back in the day Microsoft cracked down on overlays like HP Personal Page. Some bitched about it, but it was absolutely necessary. Google needs to do something similar.
Exactly. There is a huge potential safety issue.
