"Kaleidescape creates expensive consumer electronics networks that
upload the full contents of as many as 500 DVDs to a home server, and
allow the owner to browse through the movies without later using the
DVDs themselves. That's exactly what the copy-protection technology on
DVDs, called Content Scramble System (CSS) was meant to prevent, the
Hollywood-backed group said."

God forbid someone somewhere is watching a movie on some other media
than the one they purchased it on. That'll do wonders for the future of
home theater electronics.
