This "+" is a big MINUS, and mandatory firmware updates are a pox

Too many of these time-wasters in both HD DVD and Blu Ray-land!! Both camps need to BURN THEIR STANDARDS INTO STONE and stop mucking about with the copy protection or with adding features that should have been finalized before the player ever hit the market, because people come home with a new movie, and they want to pop the disk into the player and have a good time: They do not want to spend their evening updating the firmware in their players! This kind of tedious fussiness is why I gave up using Microsoft Windows.
