hold a minute here.....is this not in-fact advocating piracy?!?! which mr moderator if im not mistaken is against forum regulations? :P

Just making an observation, yer cheeky monkey :-)

Macrovision is pointless on dvd anyway as it can be bypassed easily (it`s enabled or disabled by a bit flag in the main .ifo file on a dvd) and Macrovision doesn`t stop a disc being copied or ripped and compressed to Divx format.

Also almost all multiregion mods disable macrovision (about 75% of european players are multiregion)

Most of the cheapo players have macrovision bypass options.

Praise the lord for macro off!

I think we are missing the bigger picture here, Who would want to copy this steaming pile of poo. I am suprised Mr G Gloony wasn`t in it.

All the best,

Andrew.
