Any news on the Apex 7701 'do everything' DVD?
One question is that can they 'legally' decode SACD? If they infringe on Sony's copyrights/patents won't that mean big trouble?
On the other hand if they stay far enough away in reproducing SACD as Sony meant - and avoid court fights - who will buy it?
And can they advertise SACD if not 'authorized' by Sony? I'm presuming that Sony is sticking by its guns not to let SACD 'out' except via Sony and Philips.
But all this may be moot - because from my 'research' there is STILL no 7701 on the market! Or?
