SlySoft has been around for years providing a an easy way to get past a lot of the display restrictions and a very nice and elegant way to bypass all the nags and ads they stick at the beginning of DVDs. AnyDVD is also one of the only apps I know of that will let you watch a DVD on Windows XP on a non-VGA output... very useful for us running HTPC's.
I personally don't see anything wrong with profiting off of this if you have the means to do so.
While I'm a fan of SlySofts AnyDVD, and will upgrade to a HD version whenever I decide it's safe to choose a format... I couldn't just let your HTPC comment slide.
I've only been using AnyDVD for about 6 months, but have had my HTPC running on a DVI-HDMI cable for almost 2 years, and watched movies on my old analog TV via S-Video before that, all on XP... I don't know where your specific hiccup originated, but it wasn't XP.
Anyway, this is great news, hopefully a BD version isn't too far behind.
