LICENSE INFORMATION ON THE SOFTWARE USED IN
THIS HD DVD PLAYER
This document is statement purpose only. Not concerned with operation of this product.
The software pre-installed in this HD DVD player consists of multiple, independent software components. Each software
component is copyrighted by Manufacturer or a third party.
This HD DVD player uses software components that are distributed as freeware under a third-party end-user license
agreement or copyright notice (hereinafter referred to as a “EULA”).
Some EULAs require that the source code of the applicable component be disclosed as the condition for distributing the
software component in executable format.
Some of the software components distributed under an EULA are made available for use by the user on the assumption
that they are not copyrighted or warranted. These software components are licensed to the user free of charge and
therefore not covered by any warranty within the scope of the applicable laws. These software components are not
subject to any copyrights or other third-party rights and are provided in “as is” condition without any warranty, whether
express or implied. “Warranty” here includes, but not limited to, an implied warranty for marketability or fitness for
specific uses. All risks associated with the quality or performance of these software components are assumed by the
user. Manufacturer shall not be liable whatsoever for any cost of repair or correction or other incidental expense
incurred in connection with a defect found in any of these software components. Unless specified under the applicable
laws or in a written agreement, a party who changes or redistributes the software with consent from the copyright
holders or based on the aforementioned licenses shall not be held liable whatsoever for any loss arising from the use
of or inability to use such software components. The same applies even when the copyright holders or relevant third
parties have been informed of the possibility of such loss. “Loss” here includes normal, special, incidental and indirect
loss (including, but not limited to, the loss of data or its accuracy; loss incurred by the user or any third party; and
interface incompatibility with other software). Please read each EULA for details on the use conditions and items that
must be observed regarding these software components.
The table below lists the software components pre-installed in this HD DVD player, which are subject to EULAs. The user
should read the applicable EULAs carefully before using these software components. The EULAs are exhibited in their
original text (English) as exactly written by the respective parties.

Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim
copies of this license document, but changing it is not
allowed.
Preamble
The licenses for most software are designed to take away
your freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the
GNU General Public License is intended to guarantee your
freedom to share and change free software – to make sure
the software is free for all its users. This General Public
License applies to most of the Free Software Foundation's
software and to any other program whose authors commit
to using it. (Some other Free Software Foundation software
is covered by the GNU Library General Public License
instead.) You can apply it to your programs, too.
When we speak of free software, we are referring to
freedom, not price. Our General Public Licenses are
designed to make sure that you have the freedom to
distribute copies of free software (and charge for this
service if you wish), that you receive source code or can
get it if you want it, that you can change the software or
use pieces of it in new free programs; and that you know
you can do these things.
To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that
forbid anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to
surrender the rights. These restrictions translate to certain
responsibilities for you if you distribute copies of the
software, or if you modify it.
For example, if you distribute copies of such a program,
whether gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all
the rights that you have. You must make sure that they,
too, receive or can get the source code. And you must
show them these terms so they know their rights.
We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the
software, and (2) offer you this license which gives you
legal permission to copy, distribute and/or modify the
software.
Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to
make certain that everyone understands that there is no
warranty for this free software. If the software is modified
by someone else and passed on, we want its recipients to
know that what they have is not the original, so that any
problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original
authors' reputations.
Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by
