The thing that disturbed me is that MS doesn't want the "card" manufactures to provide "Open Source" drivers for their products (with penalties). This is thrown in to put LINUX at a competitive disadvantage.

And now you understand why MS is doing it

Why does MS need to support "premium media content" under Vista? Why does Vista need to be able to play HD-DVD movies? Assuming that there are people who want to be able to watch the occasional movie on their PC, why stick that into Vista rather than just having an external HD-DVD player and have the monitor makers produce HD-capable monitors with a second imput jack?

The purpose of DRM is to lock out and cripple Linux
