</div></div>Most DVD players on linux can use libdvdcss2 to circumvent the<br>
encryption on DVD. The legal status of this library is different in<br>
different countries. ex. In US all types of circumvention of<br>
encryption is illegal, where as in Europe it is allowed for personal<br>
purpose.<br>
