I don't get how HDMI got so popular. DP had much better features earlier on. And no licensing fees.
Iirc the main reason for HDMI was its copy protection and Sony BluRay players only having HDMI. I could be wrong though.
Because HDMI predates DP. HDMI was initially just DVI-D with audio and encryption. That last part is what got the content producers to push the standard because piracy.
DisplayPort still has much better features :)
