Description

The home theater industry seems to love standards. When you're shopping for a TV, a soundbar, or a media streamer, you'll inevitably run across rosters of supported formats, some of which you may have never heard of, and may never end up using. On one level these are a necessity, since it would be maddening if a movie never looked or sounded the same across multiple TVs. Standards can also be created to push new products that don't have any call for them, though -- witness the short-lived trend of 3D TVs.
