Not true. Amazon punishes me every time I want to cast Amazon video to my Chromecast. I think the two situations are quite analogous.

- glenneroo 9y agoAnd Amazon Prime Video punishes me for trying to play video on a device via VGA cable, which they say is not HDCP compatible, therefore they limit it to 480p (when the projector supports HD/1080p).
- ygra 9y agoIs that Amazon Prime Video punishing you or the wishes of content copyright holders?
- glenneroo 9y agoI suppose both. But Netflix works fine.
- Spivak 9y agoIf this really annoys you, and it would annoy me, you can buy an HDMI splitter that strips HDCP. They run from between $5-$40 depending on whether you trust some no-name brand.
- oneweekwonder 9y agoand the rest of the world just source their content via explicit means. Because they find their time more valuable then a "legal grey area"/"moral high ground"/"doing what is right".
