Thing is, If all the major TV maufacures + AV OEMs turned round and said "From next year all equipment will drop HDMI in favour of Display port" the HDMI license ect would all of a sudden become next to nothing if not free!

Shocker.....

Like nobody knows what's gone off behind the scenes there :wink:

Quoting: pete910Why do people take any notice the steam survey ?
Because it's all we've got?
Conjure me some more accurate, comprehensive, and transparent information and I'll pay attention to that instead.
But why take any notice of inherently flawed data whether its all we've got or not ?

Why do people take any notice the steam survey ?

The only ones that know the true numbers are Valve and they seem unlikely to open that info.
