Same disc, specifically for picture in picture features

Your non 1.1 player will simply ignore those features, it's very possible they won't show up on your menus

I am not a big fan of those types of distractions, even if they need to be turned on. Do people really want features like that? I just want to watch the movie.

If you read AVS, there is no possible way to enjoy a movie with out it. I personally find them annoying too. I got War just to see profile 1.1 in action. I turned it off after about 2 minutes.
