Get this crap. I have an htpc because my stand alone dvd player died. There are movies THAT I OWN that i cant even watch without using software to strip the copy protection. This is why i get so hacked off about all this stupid copy protection crap that companies keep coming out with. I actually had to buy a program for the sole purpose of stripping off copy protection to watch a movie I purchased. And they wonder why sales are in the crapper. AnyDVD is the bomb.
