not a valid argument
by August 17, 2004 8:27 AM PDT
Judge's analogy is ridiculous. Buying a skeleton key on the black market has predisposed intent to open doors that you have 0 right to because there is already a method in place to purchase a new key or master key to locks you already own.

In the case of DVD's and the right to copy ones you already own there is no logic in trying to detour the software that can copy a CESS DVD.

Using her own argument against her we need to quickly sue manufacturers of copy machines, VHS recorders, scanners, card reader/writers because all of them manufacture distribute and sell equipment that enables people to violate and undermine the copy protection of more than a dozen products.

Its the same arguement with gun lobby. Dont blame the gun for the crime blame the person that used it. Take away the guns and criminals are the only ones that have them. Taking away the CESS copying DVD software does not harm the people that mass bootleg DVD's because they have proven they can and will break the law to insure their constant bootleg distribution. It only insures that the paying customers have no method to protect their investment with a backup copy, which is what hollywood wants.. go buy another over priced copy.

Maybe its a potential scam, they make poor quality dvd's that break and scratch easily so that they can boost long term sales!

Alternatives to DVD X Copy Software

As per http://www.dvdxcopy.com , DVD X Copy Platinum is no longer being sold. I went to http://www.dvdxcopyreviews.com and there are some interesting DVDXCopy alternative software programs for DVD copying. The site includes side-by-side comparisons and full reviews. I've tried both of the top ranked products and both are great.

American Judge can go to hell
by nmramemphis August 16, 2007 11:47 PM PDT
American law protects the strong and powerful companies in Amerixa who qant to sell you something worthless and then tell you you can't reproduce it so 'the man' can screw you all over again the nxt season. I am sorry for Americans butvI as a Canadian can make copies of my purchased property for my personal use. The US of A has become big brother on behave of multi-national companies based in the US which wish to badger teachers and students and regular folk from enjoying different media platforms. Their paranoia of piracy should nt allow American law to dictate how one uses products once purchased. American corporate scientists genetically modified fruit and vegeteables it gave to poor third world nations so that they could not reproduce their cropvthe next year but had to buy Amerixan seed. **** you American corporations and **** you Hollywood if you have sold out to ' the man'.

There's always a way around the law. After all the law is not perfect!

So far I found a site with a few software reviews around this issue.

DVD neXt COPY is probably the best DVD copying software out there. Their latest version even has better quality then DVDShrink has in its highest quality mode. If you are looking to copy your DVD movies http://www.dvdnextcopy.com is my recommendation.

I love the quick and easy process of insatlling DVDX Copy and it doesn't take long to copy a DVD but once you copy it and try to play it, well thats a different story.
