DVD's are more easily accessed through a software player like WinDVD than they 
are on a home player.  This is because you can read the menu and find the proper 
starting point using a screen reader.
Otherwise, it is a bit hit and miss.

ago, and I wondered about that.  Are most DVDs though accessable?
