Just picked up the MCA 1995 movie 'Babe' for my granddaughter and realized that Universal MCA has encoded this disc so you are forced to sit thru five minutes of their upcoming features. You can't stop the disc/ chapter forward the disc or even hit menu to get back to main menu.
The only way I could 'stop' this' was to fast forward 16 times thru the trailers.
What is the reason for this?
Is it an oversight? - if so let's get on the wagon here, and tell them that we will either stop buying their products, and/or burn their product to our discs to our satisfaction..
Is it to create future sales? - if so I will definitely boycott all product under MCA and others in future.. - Let's create a list of dvd's and manufacturers to avoid this practice. I mean, How dare you kidnap me, and my four year old grandchild in our own living room and force us to endure these practices?
This could be a legal case.
Am I the only one who is totally pi**ed at this ????
