I understand what HDCP is but how is it possible that a 2 yo MacBook Pro does not have the technology required to play Apple's on HDCP content? What is the point of buying an Apple device if it can't play Apple purchased content?

Hello ariten,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities! HDCP stands for High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection - are you attempting to view the HD content on an external display or different setup than your previous viewing? If so, this may contribute to the issue:
iTunes for Windows: Unable to view or play HD video content that requires HDCP - Apple Support
http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT203375
High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP) is a security feature requiring the use of HDCP certified products in order to display digital media like High-defintion (HD) video. In iTunes for Windows, in order to view HD content, both the display hardware (computer screen, LCD, external monitor, and so on) and video card driver must support HDCP. For additional information on purchasing and viewing HD Videos, refer to iTunes: Purchasing and viewing HD Videos.
Cheers,
Matt M.
