This is funny.  Its it for real?  I wouldn't be surprised.  So since this is a windows bug, does that mean it can be played on Linux and Mac?

Microsoft: Playback and Copy-Protection Issues When You Try to Play the Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs DVD Movie

SYMPTOMS
When you attempt to play the Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs Platinum Collection DVD movie, you may experience the following behaviors:
  • Audio and video playback is garbled or indistinct.


      -and-
   
  • Your DVD-player program reports that the DVD does not meet copy-protection requirements and must be closed.

CAUSE
This behavior occurs because the Universal Disk Format (UDF) driver (Udfs.sys) in Windows XP and Windows 2000 is unable to read certain data stored on the Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs Platinum Collection DVD. This problem does not affect any other DVD disks known to Microsoft at this time.

RESOLUTION
Windows XP
To resolve this problem, obtain the latest service pack for Windows XP.

what the fuck are "dwarfs"? I always thought that the plural of dwarf was "dwarves".

I don't know who's more moronic, those dudes who came up with the title for saying something stupid like "dwarfs" or this shitty ass language for coming up with "dwarves"

"Dwarfs" is a dodge by Disney to seize copyright control of the original Snow White story, which happens to be in the public domain.    :D
