February 24, 2006 - In perhaps the greatest disservice to the general consumer market yet perpetrated by players in the electronic entertainment industry, it has been revealed that next-generation DVD technologies (HD-DVD and Blu-ray) will only function with monitors and HDTVs with HDMI or DVI connections.

There's an XBOX 360 HD-DVD player on the way, right?
The 360 doesn't have any digital video outputs, let alone an HDCP compatible one, so surely that would render the drive useless? Unless the external drive came with an HDCP port, which would just make it a standalone player
