The distinguishing piece of WAVX --- what you neglect to mention --- is that it's hardware based,,, a chip on the motherboard,,, or snuck into a PC, trojan horse-style, through any peripheral (TV tuner, sound card, etc.)

However, the brilliant piece of WAVX is its three-legged stool business model: "a penny for you [content maker], a penny for me [Wave Systems] and and penny for YOU who place my chip inside people's machines" [Michael Dell, Gateway, Compaq, et. al.,,, or, in this case, David Deeds <g>].

Boxmakers may do fair to midland on their boxes --- but for the promise of a cent or two royalty per transaction (forever),,, expect the Wave chip to be fruitful & multiply.

The 'demonstration/simulation' pointed to in your post is so far off the note Wave should strike it (along with the "Great Stuff" moniker) from its server!
