This is hilarious, I imagine a future where you have to pay extra on Netflix to view special content above 500 nits.

Apple building in this framework creates brand new business opportunities to take money from customers.

Dolby already implemented that with Dolby Vision IQ

Dolby Vision requires the whole chain to perfectly respect what the content says, both in color and brightness, so if you have a bright film, it'll blind you in the dark. But they now license (I assume for an additional fee) adaptive brightness for Dolby Vision!
