I mean if you build a "media player", why not make a deal to include a
DVD decoder?

I agree... IMHO anyone that builds a machine with a DVD-ROM drive for retail
sale, *really* outta at least include a plug-in DVD decoder for Windows
Media Player 10 - or they shorted the end user.

I don't blame the Windows Media Player 10 software itself, as it never
claimed to be a DVD player and explains that codecs are needed if you wanna
do DVD's with it. (most users use it for CD / MP3 work).
