So you think it will have no DRM then? Lol.

It is by design to keep the end user in the dark as long as possible to avoid negative press. BD+ was also very cloak and dagger at first.

UHD DRM spec was leaked during Sony breach. All UHD players can do online authentication but it is to be used on a per disc basis. Online authentication will be UHD's version of BD+. It won't be on discs at launch to avoid backlash, but over time like BD+, online authentication will find its way into many UHD discs as even launch UHD players have the hardware and software to do it. If there were no plans to use it, it would not be in the AACS spec - and it is in the spec: http://www.myce.com/news/sony-hack-r...details-75833/
