I see no threat to our favorite format.
I think it's too early to worry too much that the threat will come to pass, but to say that this (if successful) doesn't pose a threat is exactly the same thing many were saying about divx, stating that us anti-divx crusaders were worried about nothing. I firmly believe if we hadn't fought divx tooth & nail that it might have succeeded, and it's quite clear that if that had happened, I would not own the wonderful Snow White dvd that's currently on my shelf, amongst many others.
This latest attempt is unlikely to succeed, but if it does there are plenty of greedy studios who'd jump on it.
