What, explain what it is, what it does or how it works ?

Ooooh, get me, I`ll cut meself I`m so sharp, I tells ya...

Best place to look is at the excellent FAQs available on this site (look at the menu to the left of this post), or use the forum search facility above.

In short, it`s a copy-protection device to prevent naughty, naughty people taping their DVDs onto VHS and then setting up a stall at a car boot sale...or a market in Glasgae, eh Jimbo !!!
