I'd be great to hear a French lawyer about down-sampling (in France, the law allows you to make backups of things you own, like software or music). But what's for sure is that in USA or UK, you'd be breaking the DMCA. Now, I agree that the situation is crap, but in this case, you should complain to the law makers and to the film industry, not to Debian, which is also a collateral victim here.
