It appears that Vista will not need a broadcast flag. Any media content that is not digitally signed with some kind of license, will be flagged by the system. Playing this media will result in a low-quality output that is system wide.

Now, maybe media that is recorded with the Vista version of media center will have a license. Still, how will this affect Media Portal?

Of course, the report on Vista's DMR policy could be a load of bull-(manure).
