Who do you think setup and owns the HDMI foundation?

Sony, Panasonic, Toshiba, Philips etc...

The TV manufacturers own the HDMI foundation.

Other devices being "forced" to implement HDMI ports, because every TV has them, might benefit those TV manufacturers.

Not sure how exactly that would work, I assume it gives them some level of control/power.
