I also wonder about the chances of a lawsuit against one of these SOBs for violation of consumer rights to produce an archival copy? They might sit up and take notice, if they lost such a suit, and had to ship out one free copy to everyone on the planet who purchased the DVD release of some huge box-office hit :)
What really annoys me, is the region "feature". What happens to someone who builds a large DVD collection and then moves to another part of the world? As soon as he buys a local player, his collection is worthless and his old player might not be usable at the new location. There should be a time limit on the region restrictions, so that after perhaps 2 years, the region setting expires.
