With the universal disappearance of the jack, I can't help thinking that there are behind-the-scenes pressures and incentives driving it. As in television (and so, movies on television), all analog links in the chain of delivery are being driven out. Even if you agree with that (and I don't), this means that simultaneously, any and all other use cases for these analog channels are simply fucked. Too bad, screw you. Big entertainment, and its big dollars, monopolizing the platform for its own benefit. I don't know this. I just can't help suspecting it -- not just out of thin air, though, but rather based upon what I've read about how these industries work and advocate, in general and in other specific cases.
