I'd actually prefer a WMA based DVD format, at least to the existing ones. I hate having to pay $40 per machine for crappy, single-threaded player software just to legally watch the DVDs I own. There's at least VideoLAN, but that's of questionable legality and isn't nearly as polished as WMP or PowerDVD.
Theora or something would be nicer, but I'm not living in a fantasy world
For CDs, eh. The current format works pretty well. It's not like they're going to put MORE than 70 minutes of music on a CD. As it is, a lot of music CDs aren't even full when you buy them.
I don't buy CDs very often anymore, though, so it's not a big deal. AllOfMP3 and similar services make it pretty easy to buy music in the format I want without hassle.
