  HDTV advocates join copy-protection fray
Time: 17:31 EST/22:31 GMT | News Source: USA Today | Posted By: Guillaume Hébert

The CD-burning, TV-recording public is about to get a stronger voice in the intense debate over the future of entertainment and technology. Forming this week at the National Association of Broadcasters convention in Las Vegas: a high-definition-TV advocacy group spearheaded by HDTV Magazine publisher Dale Cripps and editor in chief Howard Barton and communications attorney Tedson Meyers. The group reflects the concerns of HDTV owners, many of whom are upset about the slow flow of high-definition broadcasts and the threat of new copy protection measures that could erode the usefulness of the more than 2 million expensive sets sold to date. Early adopters ''feel a little bit knifed in the back, and I don't blame them,'' Cripps says. The group, which expects to announce its name and plans later this week, will lobby Congress and educate consumers about HDTV's benefits.
