DVD CCA and Features Restricted by Manufacturers

The DVD Copy Control Association (DVD CCA) is an organization primarily responsible for the copy protection of Blu-ray Discs and DVDs. The Content Scramble System (CSS) was developed for this purpose to prevent copyright infringement, but also set blocks to some legal uses of the media. The association is also responsible for the controversial Regional Playback Control (RPC), the region encoding scheme which gives film studios regional control over DVD distribution.
