Kindly share the portion of the source post for this thread that even
suggests your interpretation is this person's goal?
They asked how to break a copyright.
Frankly if the content of your DVD collection has value to you, you keep a
means for playing them...no more no less.
I do not find your description of "today's technology" is a reason for
this conduct, but that too is just my opinion.

Well, I apologize for my reply then, but I did not see the original poster's
question as stealing. I'll not go into the Movie Vault here, but copying a dvd
one already owns is, to me, not stealing anything. Provided the digital copy is
not sold to, given to, or otherwise distributed to anyone else, I see the copy
as a backup or a way of watching something you already paid for on another
device. For instance, say you have a Mac Mini hooked up to a living room tv,
but the Mini has no disk drive (as they have not for a couple years). You also
have a Macbook (also no disk drive) in the house. Both devices share a
network-based iTunes library, and as neither can play your movie, you simply
convert the movie into a format that your devices can use. Yes, you can buy the
movie twice over just to have it in a compatible format, but now you've paid
twice for something you owned in the first place but was simply not compatible
with today's technology. I'm sorry if I offend anyone, but that's my opinion.
Again, you cross a line when you start distributing your copies to other
people, but as long as it's for your personal use and is used to get around
technological incompatibilities, I don't view it as stealing and therefore have
no problem helping others convert their outdated dvd libraries into modern
files playable on today's diskless computers.

Hi Ray,
I am not sure where to start besides thanks...ahem because you are blind you
are entitled to stolen property? There is a regulation that says this...where?
A bit humorously, but this is not a blindness thing so to speak, of anything is
a blindness thing.
Unfortunately it is a human disorder, i. e. because I feel disadvantaged for <fill
in reason> my back ground income level, skin, gender whatever I have decided
divides me from the rest of humanity, I can claim the right to all sorts of things
belonging too others because I am entitled.
The same argument is made for other sorts of stealing, from cheating on a
spouse to shop lifting, and it is equally misguided.
to keep this on point, I suppose some forget that Apple staff are rumored to
read this list?
and I feel sure they would love to know others here are using their creativity
to steal from hard working professionals.

I totally second what Karen says here. Frankly, it's the attitude on the part
of some blind people that just because they're blind, they have the right to
steal copy right protected material makes me want to vomit!!! Nothing gives
anybody the right to Steal like that. I don't care if it's a physical store, a
DVD or what ever. When you buy a DVD or CD, or even a download, all you have
is the right to the individual private use of that intellectual property. You
DO, NOT, OWN, that intellectual property. That is the work of someone else:
and, unless that someone else specifically gives you the right to make further
use or to further distribute that intellectual property, , it IS, NOT, yours to
do with as you will. The only thing you own is the physical medium on which
that intellectual property happens to reside.

Half a moment.
Mod alert before this thread goes any further.
You actually expect people to guide you towards stealing property here?
Just as bad as the other thread recently telling someone how to seal movies
from the vault of stolen material the mice gives away.
I trust a mod will prevent this before it gets out of hand.

So, what apps do people use to remove copyright protection from DVD's so it
can be ripped? I heard VLC can do this, but never knew how to do it.
