I have so many DVDs that use this "feature" to keep me from changing
subtitles or audio tracks while watching the movie as well as from
skipping past a lot of the crud that comes before the menus or just
before the movie itself. It's a good reason why I like to copy some of
my DVDs so I don't have to put up with these limitations that studios
think I need on watching a movie. Why on earth shouldn't I change audio
or subtitles in the midst of watching a movie?
