Re: Contract Law Real Networks is in the process of being sued by the Big Six studios over its DVD ripping software due out next week. Real claims it does not violate DMCA since it does not permit distribution beyond the computer the file is ripped to. Nevertheless, the suit has been filed. Whether this will have any effect on DMCA interpretation regarding copy protection avoidance is anyones guess at this point but it does show how jumpy the MPAA et. al. are about this.

Smithfield, NC | They are violating the DMCA by distributing cracking technology. The user is not. |
