RE: MPAA Petition for Expedited Special Relief: Waiver
of 47 C.F.R. §76.1903 (MB Docket No. 08-82)

Demand (VoD) prior to DVD release without Selectable Output Control
(SOC). This is precisely the type of offering that the MPAA has claimed
“necessarily would require a higher level of protection against
copyright theft than is currently permissible.”
