Disney, Paramount, Twentieth Century Fox, Time Warner and and Universal Studios are suing Samsung over a DVD player which was not only a retail failure, but had the additional misfortune of being hacker-friendly.” In an article in The Korea Times, a Samsung spokesman (who had not yet seen the text of the complaint) speculated it was regarding the DVD-HD841, which Samsung had sold in the United States between June and October 2004.
