Copy Protection

• Because AACS (Advanced Access Content System) is approved as content protection system for Blu-
ray Disc format, similar to use of CSS (Content Scramble System) for DVD format, certain restrictions
are imposed on playback, analogue signal output, etc., of AACS protected contents.
The operation of this product and restrictions on this product may vary depending on your time of
purchase as those restrictions may be adopted and/or changed by AACS after the production of this
product. Furthermore, BD-ROM Mark and BD+ are additionally used as content protection system for
Blu-ray Disc format, which imposes certain restrictions including playback restrictions for BD-ROM
Mark and/or BD+ protected contents. To obtain additional information on AACS, BD-ROM Mark, BD+,
