It seems that the bill to include copy protection in every electronic device isn't enough to please the MPAA, Disney and others. They've been meeting in secret with various hardware makers to try and come up with a way of including copy protection directly into the digital TV standard, even going so far as trying to figure out ways to prevent people with older equipment from being able to watch or record shows!
