Yeah, the MPAA's position is that you should not even be allowed watch a paid-
for DVD on a Linux system, a ludicrous position, but the courts seem to back

Since in their eyes buying a DVD and watching it on a Linux system is the same
"crime" as downloading the program from the internet, what is it they are
effectively encouraging? :-)
