The solution to this is simple..
Keep your original disks.
Implement a stringent Disk Check/Backup routine.

Where is the Beta forum, I don't have VHS? LOL . Kidding a side Optical will be around long after I'm gone ( Opinion ) but I am 60+ . Disc basically will never ware out if you don't damage or abuse it, say leaving in your car in Arizona on a 120 degree day. The younger high tech generation love this new streaming and and they seem to make the excess money to afford it. But if you do transfer all your movies to memory, keep your hard copies, or make hard copies DVD or BD if downloaded. A acquaintance of mine bought 2 Large TB hard drives and put all his movies on one and used the other for back up. Then gave away his DVD's and BD's he says. First drive failed and he started to use his back up, yep that's rite it failed to before he got it backed up, total lose of his collection. Evidently they where flawed. If he still had his optical disks he could start over. By the way who needs to watch a 4K movie on there ipad or smart phone, or spend $4000 dollars on a 4K LCD. Save your money and get one of the new holographic TV's. Then in the mean time you can eat Steak.....

I agree but I believe that dvd's will eventually become old thus mothballing our dvd players.

Someone who can write firmware versions for the most common name new and current DVD players would be very beneficial for this software company. At least that is the way I see it!

It depends on who makes the media player, but in most cases the studios do not have any control over the player makers (as they do over the disc players via AACS) and Cinavia requires hardware and firmware that the media player makers will not have to install (at least the ones that 1) play discs and 2) use DVDFab's core technology).

All I'm saying is the discs my set top player won't play because of Cinavia my media player will. Who knows what the future holds but so far so good.
