Re: Can't Copy Protected CDs still be cracked?

This whole thread sounds like a den of thieves trying to figure out how they can continue to shoplift their groceries now that the grocer is planning to put their favorite items into a locked cabinet.

It isn't theivery if I were to make a backup of a CD/DVD that I paid for, especially if it were a Sony CD/DVD being copied on a Sony laptop using Sony Factory installed software. Fair use is fair use.

Even if it wasn't a Sony CD/DVD, if I paid for it, I will do as I see fit. If they want to try and bust me for some BS... Bring It!
DRM is easily defeated, sorry. Copy Protection is a joke.
I have LEGAL software that allows me to copy ANYTHING that is inserted into my optical drive. Be it stripped of protection or a bit for bit copy, I can and will make a copy.

YMMV.

More like the grocer locking up our items after we've bought and paid for them.

major marco, how do you know my mothers not dead thank you very much !!!

Also your post did nothing to further the thread in ANY way whatsoever, so i'm at a loss to even try and fathom why you did ?

I've noticed others posting OT comments on almost a daily basis on these forums to many people, Why ?

I thought posting ways on here to encorourage others to commit illegal acts was a No No ? Maybe it's not after all as i havn't seen Any intervention as of yet !

Legal, sorry.
Maybe because Fair Use isn't illegal...

...yet. It's not like they haven't been trying to make it so.

I'll bet you'd quickly change your tune if the tables were turned.

Imagine that you are a musician who writes and performs music and makes a living by selling albums. Or that you are an artist, or an author, or a programmer, or a web page designer, or that you are involved in any other creative endeavor that can be easily copied by today's technology.

You would quickly realize that all of those people who make illegal copies of your work are stealing from you.

Making a copy to go on YOUR OWN DIGITAL PLAYER is NOT illegal!

I have this "problem", the only CD/DVD players I own are built in my laptops. These drives do not support 1x playback. 4x is the slowest speed they support(bummer).

The "player" softwares I choose to use have this awful habit of caching the played items. They also have the "option" of COPYING whatever I "play". They achieve this at faster speeds than I can watch/listen to said items.

I guess I should stop purchasing digital media all together, since my CD/DVD players do this. Oh wait... they don't want that, do they? Hmmm.
