I think this is the worst aspect of DVDs.

When I play a music disc, I want to hear the music.  I put it in and
press play, it plays the music.  

DVD players should work the same way:  Put it in, press play, the movie
begins.  I've got a menu button on my player *should* I want to do
something else (like sit through several minutes of animated menus, one
after another, several copyright warnings in different languages, and
three film company brag clips, etc).
