    Make a DVD expire

    Is there a way to make a DVD I make in Vista Windows DVD Maker expire after a
    certain number of days (much like the feature in InAlbum 2.0)



    I want my DVD to become useless after a year or more or less. Is there an
    add-in or other software that will do this so I can still use Windows DVD
    Maker and not have to switch to InAlbum???

    Not with a standard DVD video that will play in a DVD player, no.

    If you're looking for some way of encoding a video that has this
    functionality, then take a look at this page
    http://www.microsoft.com/windows/win...ctContent.aspx
    which details how to create a Windows Media Video file and add content
    protection. This format will only be able to be played on a Windows PC with
    Windows Media Player though... that's the drawback with DRM.
