Actually you do not "own" those movies. You purchased a license to
view them under circumstances specified in that license (you did read
it, right?).
Technically it is still illegal to view a conventional DVD under
Linux, at least in the USA.
I suspect a Linux Blu-Ray viewing solution will come along, but will
still be a violation of the DMCA.
I'm anything but an apologist for the MPAA, but that's what their
position is, and so far the courts have backed them up.
