Yes, I agree, USE flags are a bit fuzzy. Even if legality wasn't a |
| 12 |
problem, still it's not accurate to use such a name for an use flag that |
| 13 |
adds support for decryption. It's even funnier when you realize that you |
| 14 |
don't even need to enable it to play all the dvd's (only encrypted ones). |

In such cases, the best thing is to fill an enhancement bug and hope for |
| 16 |
the best. I might do that later if I manager to remember it. |
