The only problem I've ever come across that you might consider nasty
would be Blu-ray and I don't really consider that an issue anyways (well
I do sometimes when I bring a Blu-ray disk to my computer and I'm doing
some administration work ~ which I don't do from Windows) because most
people don't run monitors big enough to even warrant the 1080p Blu-ray
brings, but then again, as the world progresses it is starting to become
a problem because more and more people are picking up true 1080p capable
monitors.

I don't know if most of this is more of an issue about openness, I know
most of us would not have a problem with this software if they were just
more open about methods so we can build better software for open systems
to run this software, but ultimately they think that if they go open it
will make things easier for pirates, but as you've already pointed out,
it's a moot thought since it doesn't stop pirates one bit...
