Exactly the situation when DVD on the PC premiered circa 1998. Now,
10 years later, $60 motherboards that integrate graphics, audio,
networking, all the regular motherboard stuff, and a CPU - again, for
$60 - can decode a DVD in software without so much as a single dropped
frame. Anything more expensive does it with single digit CPU load.
Hardware h.264 acceleration is an early-adopter problem.
