>>Having worked at Macrovision for 2 years, I can give some insight on the company.>> Do you still work there? If not, can you assure us that you don't have an ax to grind? >>Whenever a DVD disc includes copy protection, the consortium allows Macrovision to collect a penny or two.>> This is contrary to all information I have. MVSN indicated at the last conference call that they receive ~20 cents per DVD in non-volume. Volume purchases roughly range between 3-8 cents per DVD. I would have to believe that DVD margins are at least as good, if not better than VHS. Given your supposed inside info, please indicate revenues per VHS and explain why DVD margins will be less.
