I love the ones that prevent you from changing the audio language or
subtitles while playing the movie. What idiot thought I should be
forced to go back to the menus to change them when I have buttons on
the remote?

More impressive, though, was one I think David Lynch movie which has no
chapters, and disabled the timeline bar in PowerDVD so I couldn't even
click on the point in the movie I wanted to watch from. The only way to
get to the point in the movie where I wanted to start watching was to
bloody fast-forward through forty minutes.
