I'm not sure why, but I always watch movies on my computer. But I think things changed when I tried to play Iron Maiden's Death on the Road DVD, and it wouldn't work. Later on the week, I tried to play an ordinary DVD movie, and it did not work, my DVD drive did not read the DVD at all, it wasn't picking up anything? What's wrong here?
