I didn't notice an answer to my question, to wit - "What
negative effect does DRM have in Blu-Ray playback on a Blu-Ray
player?"
As for the warnings, I was momentarily taken in by a
"Casablanca" rip-off, government commercial against IP "theft"
on a DVD I watched just a bit of just yesterday. The DVD was
"P.S. I Love You," which I rented for a neighbor. The
anti-theft commercial was more interesting than the movie:-(
