Video Business reports the AACS companies (Disney, Warner, Sony and others) reached a deal on requiring hardware makers to down-convert signals that are sent over analog connections to displays.
The down-conversion reduces a HD signal (1920x1080 lines) to a near-SD signal (960x540) in order to discourage piracy, but only if a digital flag (Image Constraint Token) is inserted into the file.
As many sets still use analog connections, this isn't contributing to HD adoption.
