There is probably a simple techological solution here. Basically, create and sell a DVD player that can read instructions about how to play a commercial DVD censored in various ways via the internet or some sort of CD-ROM system so that you buy a standard copy of, say, The Matrix, and the player adjusts how it's played by either automatically skipping over scenes, dropping out the sound, blocking out parts of the screen, or changing how the picture is framed. The only question there would be whether you need to agree not to do that when you license the technology to play DVDs.

Such a machine exists and is for sale at your local Wally World for about $200. I think it's called Clearplay or something like that.

It has a huge list of cuss words and images you can block.

I've thought the same thing. The trick would be to program the machine for individual movies so they wouldn't end up choppy and weird.
