VC-1 was named VC-1 by the standards group SMPTE. Even though M$ is the head honcho of the VC-1 goon squad, they aren't the only ones that have developed it. If a codec were to recieve the title VC-2 or VC-2.1, it would have to come from the standards body. If this happened there would not be a surprise announcement, it would be talked about argued, stamped by 11 different beuracrats (sp?) and software engineers and it would take months and years to ever before the first disc using it hit retail shelves.

I see Kjack chimed in on this, he would probably be one of the aforementioned 11 stampees. He called BS so it is definitly BS.
