Nobody takes the fun out of life more than lawyers and Disney’s 57-page EULA on its Sleeping Beauty Blu-ray release. The agreement must be accepted before disc access is allowed and then there is another 63-page Privacy Policy agreement screen before access to BD Live material can be accessed. The whole ordeal is a tad annoying. It’s understandable that Disney wants to protect its assets, but this is a little much.
I’m surprised that all BD-Live content isn’t required to have a privacy policy. I find it actually fantastic that Disney is taking a step forward and detailing EXACTLY what information they are using from a viewer’s use. I could do without the EULA, but to be honest, it’s Disney… did you expect them to not cover their asses in every way possible?
My opinion is biased though being as I love Disney more than about 90% of the things on this earth.
I’m sorry, but that whole process is just unnecessary. The rights and restrictions apply, regardless of whether or not you click an “accept” button. They don’t have to make users go through that ridiculousness just to get to some extra features.
And now you are some CEO’s towel boy for life since you didn’t read the fine print. Ridiculous to have to something like this for a consumer “after” they have purchased the product. Please.
