Ah, so "Company provided service, but then ditched it and now theatres are left to buy more expensive (and likely locked down) hardware in hopes the next company doesn't pull the rug on them again"
Companies exiting a market and leaving clients/customers without their service isn't a new thing. Was happening well before DRM was even thought of, let alone implemented. And still happens now. Polaroid leaving the instant photo market comes to mind.
So what point are you trying to make with that?
That sony is fully at fault here?
