Denon launched a new upscaling DVD player incredibly featuring a higher price than true Hi Def players. Described as "Universal Player", the DVD-A1XVA can be purchased for… only £2700 (about € 4000 or about $ 5100).
But the really interesting part is this:
HDMI ports are featured – though we’re more than a little confused by the fact that they’re said to be HDCP-compliant.
Are there any SD-format DVD movies that require HDCP compliance? If not, then this might be a sign that they’re likely to be coming some time soon. Eeek!
Should we start to be worried?
Whoever is interested, can read more detailed features on Denon website.

Or is this Universals way of using their name to get back all that money they have lost on their movies, by allowing a namebrand name to be used on a device haha. I hope you all know I am just being sarcastic. 4-5k for something like this is like buying a gold car. Stupid and useless Most popular headlines
