In a CNN.com article, the legal director of the MPAA is quoted as saying that authorized Linux DVD players exist.

"They are basically complaining about our ability to protect our members' products," Mark Litvack, the MPAA's legal director for worldwide antipiracy, said in a telephone interview. He added that there are authorized Linux-based DVD players on the market"

Can someone tell us where these authorized players are located? I have yet to see one...
