Hollywood Says No to Filtering DVD Player

Posted by CowboyNeal on from the raw-and-uncut dept.

They want to prevent the sale of a special DVD player which can be used to edit out offensive material from a DVD in realtime. While I don't agree with censorship in general, I do believe its everyone's right to do what they wish with their own media."
