[DM-MUG] My DVD copy protected?

[Holly Welch]

I ran into this when i had the movie club with students. The answer  
is....some dvd players will play them and some won't. If you are  
selling them, make sure the people try them in their machines before  
an important event. I had a family who had to borrow a different dvd  
player to show theirs at a hall.
