play them. Around 40 per cent of the discs are now played on computers rather

cannot smoothly decode DVD content. So VCI, whose DVD titles include Brassed
Off and My Beautiful Laundrette, will now label movies like
computer software, telling buyers that computers need a digital decoder card to
play the movie properly.
