We the undersigned are asking you the producers of DVDs to continue to include English subtitles on your DVDs.

The D(d)eaf community rely upon subtitles to follow the dialogue in a film. If you have ever tried watching a film with the sound off, you will realise that it is impossible to fully understand what is going on when you can not hear what the characters are saying. DVD is the first medium to give D(d)eaf people equal access to the film industry and many D(d)eaf people have invested in DVD players in order to take advantage of this.

Please understand the importance of subtitles to the D(d)eaf community and continue to put English subtitles on the DVD's you produce.
