...also I see no reason to be forced to watch a copyright notice (often there are two) on a DVD I have purchased.

On my Pioneer DVD video recorder with hard drive, I switch from DVD to HDD mode as soon as the copyright notice comes up. Then when I switch back to DVD mode, I can usually go straight to the disc menu without the notice appearing. Works with most discs. :)
