[QUOTE="Brocklander, post: 37494, member: 10390"] I wouldn't touch a new display without HDCP. You will not be able to play BluRay or HDDVD at a HD resolution - from a dedicated player or from your HTPC - without HDCP protection, and yes this means sometime in the future having to get a graphics card that supports it. But on the other hand, is it worth it? If you don't want to play HD material from those discs, along with whatever else they put the same protection on in the future, then you don't need it. There's also the likely chance that someone will get around the protection the same way they have with DVD output over analogue. [/QUOTE]
