YES ! It appears that Sony have done it again. In their zeal to make their DVD movies copyproof (yeah right) they have in fact made their latest releases unplayable on some DVD players, including my Sony DVP-CX995V DVD player. I recently rented “Stranger than Fiction” (2 copies) and “The Holiday” ( please no comments on my choice of movies) both by Sony Pictures. Both load up to the splash title screen and then load no further, then after about 60 secs the player turns itself off!


I really don't know how I can add to this...

well, it just goes to show that these whole idea of DRM and copy right protection is causing way too much headache. Dont' get me wrong I am okay with the whole copyright idea but I hate that we as consumer have to suffer the broken software and limited usage for soemthign we purchased.

I had trouble with Stranger than Fiction on my regular Xbox with the DVD package. When loading up UnleashX and playing it from there, it worked fine. I also LOVE it when Sony adds about 5 different copyright notices IN the playing of the movie at the beginning.

2014 is going to be a good year. More content, more streamlining. Be a part of history!
