Beauty in DVD Menus

One of the many reason I stopped buying dvds. The adverts (unskippable), the cognitive bones etc get through to the play, some disks would even have spoilers for the film.

Just buy them and rip them. This is Hacker News, after all.

Who's ripping DVDs in 2026? Just print a photo of each frame and flick through.

I still rip DVDs, a few a month. No streaming services in our household, so DVDs are how we get multilingual versions of things.

And I can rip the special features.

I was ripping DVDs before most of HN had touched a keyboard. I’ve stilll got my decss tshirt.

It’s far easier to acquire them from the internet.

Piracy is a service problem.
