I use DVDFab Decrypter and DVD Shrink. These are free and available for download on the internet. 476931@blogcritics.org Sat, 11 Nov 2006 21:49:02 EST Comment by Cuban_Papi on Do You Have the Right to Make a Backup Copy of Your DVDs? http://blogcritics.org/archives/2002/10/29/101740.php#comment-474100 Its a sad world when you are given the tools to do something and then are told that we can never use the tool. Eve and Adam didn't even listen, when told that they could not eat from the tree of knowledge. Why give us the knowledge if we are not allowed to use it? I could understand if I was making copies to sell to people, or renting dvd's to copy and not buying the actual movie. All I want to do is make copies of the movies that I own so the originals are not damaged,and become nothing more than a useless coaster. I have bought several dvd's over the years since its inception; some of which are no longer available, and would love to be able to make up backup copies of them. Looks like "Big Brother and the Thought Police" have struck again!

They are fragile and can scratch or break. And they go out of print. I have the Criterion versions of Silence of the Lambs and Robocop and the 2 disc version of Fight Club which are all no longer available. 1733@blogcritics.org Wed, 30 Oct 2002 05:01:30 EST
