No title 27

The EFF is looking for stories from people that have encounter problems with copy protected CD, DVD limitations, etc., such as:
  • Ever bought a copy-protected "CD" and found that it doesn't play in a device like your car stereo or computer?
  • Ever bought a foreign DVD only to discover it won't play on your American DVD player? Did you have to buy a multi-region player to get around it?
  • Do you hate it when DVDs force you to watch ads every time you play them?
They will collect and forward the stories to the government during the comment period on the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA). I have only encountered unskipable commercials on DVDs (really annoying if you accidentally hit the stop button), but go through the extra step of checking every CD I buy on my computer to make sure it plays correctly.
