HDMI essentially only exists for DRM reasons (i.e. controlling who can make compatible devices); open specs are antithetical to that purpose.

- vel0city 5y agoThe DRM often conflated with HDMI (HDCP) existed years before the first HDMI cable was sold. Or were you saying DRM when it comes to a physical port specification? In which case, that wouldn't really be digital rights management.
- xvilka 5y agoYes, DisplayPort is the only good standard. Hopefully, HDMI will disappear one day.
