If you want to keep interactivity, then don't stream the DVD but share it 
over your network (smb/nfs/apache, etc...). As long as the DVD was 
authenticated on the server side (by running a dvd player for instance) 
then the client will be able to access all the necessary data and crack the 
encryption all in software.
