Hear, hear! It's shit like that, and all the dame intervening screens "Disney DVD", "Upcoming Films", blah, blah, blah, that make me make copies of my legitimately bought Disney DVDs, so my children and I don't have to go through them every single fucking time we play them.

Whatever happened to autostarters, like Waterworld.

What's even more ironic, most pirated dvds have the forced logos removed.


Which ones are those?

Hehe... all of them.

Most of my dvds (about 300) are store bought dvds. What bothers me is that the industry acts as if every downloaded dvd stands for the exact money they missed. Well, I hated the animated series of x-men. So I didn't want to see the movie(s). But downloaded x-men 1 from a torrent site a long time ago to give it a shot. I actually liked the movie so I bought the special edition 2 disc set in stores. Because I liked x-men 1 I went to see x-men 2 and 3 in cinemas + I bought them on dvd. This would not have happened if I didn't had the chance to download number 1 in the first place.
