That's because the US, Australia, the UK and Japan are all signatories to the WIPO treaties, and therefore have to have copyright laws that are in line with the treaties.

So I finally played FSA for the first time last night. Being a big ALttP fan, I like this one a lot, and I liked the price even better; I got it in a 3 pack with Soul Calibur II and Super Mario Sunshine for $50 Cdn. Not bad, when you consider that FSA typically goes for $50-60 Cdn alone.

Reminds me of the episode of Arrested Develpoment when the DA insists that he's got conclusive evidence of WMDs in Iraq near the houses George Bluth Sr. was building, but it turns out to be a shot of Tobias' testicles that he accidentally took with his digital camera.

MGM currently owns the rights to The Hobbit, so any adaptation would have to be made with some concessions to Sony.

Besides, DVD isn't going anywhere anytime soon. Any HD disc format is going to be niche oriented before gaining mass acceptance. Everyone assumes that HD will be adopted as quickly as DVD, but because the cash outlay is so massive to achieve any discernible benefit (my guess is around $750 to $1500 for a player plus a minimum $1000 investment in display equipment, plus the fact that HD discs are going to carry at least a 30% price premium over regular DVDs), I'd say it's going to take a minimum of 10 years to reach current DVD levels.

It's fun stuff, but I can't figure out the last dungeon, or get anyone esle to play it with me.
I also technically have FS on the GBA, but I've never played it since nobody else I know has ALttP.

ALttP can easily be found for an SNES emulator online. My mother-in-law turned me on to ALttP when she had her SNES (which is now in my possession), but if it's any consolation, my wife is having a difficult time with FSA and she's an ALttP fanatic.
I also found a cheat site that may help:

They may have, but how many people are honestly going to go out and buy HD-DVD or Blu-Ray for a conventional TV? Current DVD on a high quality display is already HD enough for them.

You bet correctly. That's why it's going to take so much longer for the winning HD format to be adopted; a format war doesn't help matters either.

Actually, I'd like to see Merrin Dungey (Francie from Alias) take over as Storm. She's an unknown quantity who could really bring some teeth to the role.

I think an HBO series would be the perfect medium for detailing the life of Pink Floyd.

As for political figures I'd like to see immortalised on the silver screen, how about J. Edgar Hoover?
