Public bug reported:

https://help.ubuntu.com/stable/ubuntu-help/video-dvd-restricted.html
https://help.ubuntu.com/stable/ubuntu-help/video-dvd.html.en

These two help articles both recommend the Fluendo DVD Player for
legally playing DVDs. However, Fluendo announced that they would be
discontinuing their product as of April 11, 2021, and new licenses don't
appear to be available anymore (https://fluendo.com/en/blog/post
/oneplay-dvd-player-product-discontinuation/). As such, these
instructions are no longer accurate.

The AskUbuntu community is currently searching for alternatives
(https://askubuntu.com/questions/1337426/legally-playing-dvds-post-
april-2021), but, in the mean-time, at least a note saying that the
software was discontinued will be helpful.
