Re: [OT] Starwars Ep 1 Video

One of my pet peeves is the movie industry encoding the DVD's to
maintain their
"regions of distribution".

I also heard that some of the DVD players have "hidden" modes to play
any
DVD...One company has allready gotten itself into trouble over
this...:-)

(I don't remember which brands tho...:-(  )
