Re: Giving the RIAA Ammunition for Music Sharing Tax. US Copyright law already gives me permission to make copies for personal use. i could rip DVDs and Blu-Rays to my PC if i so chose to because US Copyright law says i can under fair use as long as it's for personal usage.
how about the RIAA and MPAA run tighter shops? why was i able to get a DVD quality copy of Transformers once two days after it hit theaters? simple the movie company couldnt run a tight shop and that somehow got out. -- [65 Arcanist]Filan(High Elf) Zone: Broadband Reports |

US Copyright law says no such thing and ripping encrypted DVDs and Blu-Rays may be a violation of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. |

Actually I'm pretty sure it does, but the problem comes in that the breaking the encryption is illegal. If there was no encryption, there would be no illegal activity.
