 Universal DVDs have that annoying FACT informercial which you can only
 fast forward (and not skip), unlike other studios which see sense and
 allow to either go directly to the menu or completely skip that bloody
 annoying, pointless FACT message.
 
 Some titles I've seen force you into pressing fast forward continously
 sitting through a load of adverts for other titles - you can't go
 directly to the film or menu system.
 
 User prohibitions should be banned.  I've paid to watch a film.  I KNOW
 I shouldn't steal handbags, cars, wallets and movies.  I KNOW what's
 coming from the same bloody studio as I've got something called the
 Internet that lets me find that out.  I just want to bloody watch the
 flipping film for crying out loud..
 
 Regards,
 
 Martyn
