Installing the libdvdcss package will make totem play encrypted (comercial) DVDs. You can also buy some comercial DVD player (like linDVD, from the same folks that WinDVD). And finally you can use some distro that has out-of-the-box DVD support like Mandriva (paying version), Ubuntu Mint (just ubuntu with different artwork and multimedia enabled), PCLinuxOS, Mephis... Note that all that distros, but the paying version of Mandriva, or installing the libdvdcss file, are probably illegal in the US and any other jurisdiction that enforces software patents.
