You don't need to pay.[ Parent | Reply to This ] (none / 0) (#2)

There is a free program named DVD43 that does the same thing. Don't be conned into paying for it. It really is free.

I will not explain how to get it, however.

And, of course, by 'the same thing', I'm merely talking about how it can remove region restrictions in countries where such restrictions are illegal, much like the program you mentioned. I know of no other purpose for either of these program.

Congress shall make no law abridging the freedom of speech...HA!

The only purpose of AnyDVD??[ Parent | Reply to This ] (none / 0) (#6)

I'm running it here--and I've never had a region-protected DVD to be an issue. It's got other nice things, though--such as removing many of the restrictions built into the DVD. Ever get annoyed at all the non-abortable junk at the start of many movies? While the chapter skip button often will fail (AnyDVD can enable it, it can't make sure it points to someplace rational) the fast forward will always work under AnyDVD.
