Writing in a bog <A target="blank" href="http://sonystrikesagain.wordpress.com/">here</A>, a geezer called Micky B recounts his adventurers trying to get some new disks to play on his 
Sony DVP-CX995V DVD player. </P><P>
Several copies of two movies 'Stranger than Fiction' and 'The Holiday' loaded up to the splash title screen, stopped and then switched the machine off.</P><P>
There were no problems with DVD’s or new releases from other movie companies, Mickey said.</P><P>
He called Sony who admitted that the problem was being caused by its new copy protection  making these discs unplayable in some players including our own.  Sony says that it does not not intend to change the copy protection.</P></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/998CF395-C12A-4D3F-B32E-31C561CDEF35/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content8.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
