I'm speechless.

lol. So, the only case where CSS exists is on pressed, original DVDs. Obviously, you bought those.

Illegal copies don't have CSS on them (obviously.)

I think it's better if we all just download our movies. See, no CSS, no legal problem with circumventing it.

Right, that is the safest , and you have a media that don't refuse you to
play the movie before you seen the FBI warning and clips of coming movies
and other junk before you get the main menu.

I pirate version has more value then the DVD you pay for, just put it in
and the movie start, user friendly, not hostile and abusing.
