How many players are there, a dozen or so? Its not that hard really.
Remember, Paramount recalled (and replaced) all Ironman discs not too long before they were to be released, because of authoring issues. Word is, that it wouldn't play on all players. It can be done, if the studio really cares.
Lets be honest, this is mostly an issue with Fox discs. This last batch of problem discs effected the Sharp, most Sammys and LGs, as well as several of the Sony players. If Fox is going to play musical BD+ every few months, its going to cause problems. The masses aren't going to want to have to deal with FW updates. All movies should be able to play in all players. period.
>>>If the software is in spec, the player is at fault<<<
But what if the player(s) is in spec too? If the player came first, then the software should be compatible.
