Can you play DVD-A discs on a MacBook Pro?

Gang,

I've just added a Musical Fidelity M1DAC and a MF V-Link USB-to-SPDIF converter to my rig, so I can upgrade my CD player and output music from my MacBook Pro to my rig. But can I also play DVD-A discs from my laptop? My impression is that you cannot, because of the encryption on DVD-A discs. But then I've seen online that VLC media player will play them? What's the deal?

Bill_k,

Thanks for the tip .... looks interesting. I wonder what if any quality is lost in the ripping process with that software.
