Novell and Ximian Novell is running a survey on which applications people are most interested in getting ported to Linux. With enough votes, they'll take the highest ranked ones and present the results to the companies, hopefully in persuading them to consider that there is a market. You can read a preliminary report, or take the survey yourself.

powerdvd is so horribly buggy on windows i really don't see that a version for linux would be worthwhile when xine and even mplayer are just as good (and maybe more stable!)

i do seem to recall that there was a linux version though, not sure, maybe it was just a xine skin....

I know powerdvd isn't the best app for the job,perhaps nero showtime is better at least on windows.
Furthermore i really like both xine and mplayer,though i wish we had the choice of watching encrypted dvd's legally on Linux.
