Disney has released Sleeping Beauty on Blu-Ray (its first classic to make it to Blu-ray), but anyone trying to access the BD-Live extra features is confronted with a 57 page EULA and a 63 page privacy policy.

We have seen less onerous EULAs while installing an operating system on a computer! We think this is another case of “Lawyers Gone Wild”, plain and simple. We understand Disney needs to protect itself from litigation, but can’t they just put the fine print somewhere else that doesn’t impede the functionality of disc.

What if you had to agree to an EULA before watching a movie?  The worst thing is that none of these discs may be any good when the companies making them decide to cut of their service.
