You obviously don't live on an "emerging economy" country. All low end LCD/LED monitors here are VGA. The client doesn't want to pay the extra U$S 33 (aprox.) that buys you a DVI/HDMI screen.
Not all countries are first world economies.

They won't be buying high-end, modern graphics cards on those budgets either. So what's your point?

That's what my original point was. If you are unable to afford a first world monitor probably not going to be able to afford a first world video card

#1 advantage to VGA: no HDCP.

Not like something to remove HDCP is hard to get on the internet as it is but HDCP isn't required on HDMI when you are captureing games.

HDMI 1.2 (I think it was) had a bug in HDCP so that's often used to circumvent HDCP via a splitter. Problem is, it limits bandwidth so on really high resolution stuff, it won't work.

generally not capturing more then 1080 anyway so not really issue least at this point.

My point is what happens with the low end.

It continues to be a rebranded 6 year old card.
