Suppose an HP DVD-RAM rewritable drive will no longer recognize commercial DVDs. Still plays and records to CDs and data DVDs. Hypothetically speaking, if someone had used this drive to make a back-up copy of one of their own DVDs, could that have some how disabled the drives ability to play commercial DVDs?

no, but there is a feature on dvd drives that has to do with the region a dvd was manufactured for, us, asia, europe. when you switch regions more than once, it can lock down the viewing of commerical dvd's its an anit piracy feature.
