In Linux distributions using DVDCSS,region decryption doesnt arise..just play.. 8)
libdvdcss

libdvdcss is a simple library designed for accessing DVDs like a block device without having to bother about the decryption.
Features

* Portability. Currently supported platforms are GNU/Linux, FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD, BSD/OS, BeOS, Windows 95/98, Windows NT/2000, MacOS X, Solaris, and HP-UX.
* Simplicity. There are currently 7 functions in the API, and we intend to keep this number low.
* Freedom. libdvdcss is released under the General Public License, ensuring it will stay free, and used only for free software products.
* Just better. Unlike most similar projects, libdvdcss doesn't require the region of your drive to be set.

AnyDVD does not change the region code,it just fools the OS into thinking that that the DVD inserted has the proper region code.Also it's perfectly legal.

Actually AnyDVD does not depend on the type or make of drive!! Its just a windows driver!! So i doubt your drive is the problem!

AnyDVD works in the background to automatically remove the copy protection of a DVD movie as soon as it's inserted into the drive, allowing you then to backup the movie using a DVD backup tool such as CloneDVD. You can also remove the RPC region code, thereby making the movie region free and viewable on any DVD player and with any DVD player software.

AnyDVD is capable of removing unwanted movie features, including subtitles and prohibition messages such as copyright and FBI warnings. It also allows you to launch an external application whenever you insert or remove a disc, or prevent 'PC-friendly' software from automatically launching when you insert a video DVD.

Decryption is not all that AnyDVD offers. You can control the drive speed of your DVD drive, allowing you to reduce the noise level when watching movies on your PC. You can even adjust the display frequency of your monitor for both NTSC and PAL displays.

But AnyDVD doesn't just stop at DVDs. It also decrypts protected audio CDs to allow you to copy them.
