If you found a way to prevent copying, the entertainment industry would
reward you beyond your wildest dreams.

The "Divx" dvd's Best Buy used to sell can't be copied. You even need a registered player to view them.

If the recording industry put the money into reducing the cost of their
product, instead of chasing the impossible, then fewer people would bother
with copying. The industry bases lost sales on the false premise that those
people who copy would pay for the material if they were unable to copy it.
This might have more credibility if less of their output was dross.

If you paid the full price, you were allowed unlimited viewing, other than that, it was time limited. You can buy the disks real
cheap on Ebay,but you can't view them anymore. There are vob files and such on the disk but you can't copy or view them. They used
triple des encryption which so far is unbreakable.

It was a rental scheme with no need to return the rental ... it was

No longer exists, except for those few folks who still hold onto their old
disks ... which won't play at all.
Who would bother to break the encryption of a format that no longer exists?
