Since I live in the USA, the legality of my using my DVD ROM drive to
watch legally obtained DVDs under Linux is at best questionable, and
probably outright illegal. It's due to this grandiosely titled law
called the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA).
But I guess you already knew this somewhere......
At least here in Aus we have knocked that on its head, at least in regardto mod chips. The was recently a court ruling against sony, allowing people to legally install mod chips in playstations.
