    Burning DVD's is this illegal?

    I hear both things, but say I rent a movie, or get one from a friend or whatever, and I decide to burn it so I can watch it later (not disribute or sell it) Does anyone KNOW wheather this is in fact illegal or not?

    Do you have a "Exit here - if under 18" link on your warningpage? Chances are you are linking to yahoo/google/disney etc. Those days are over, signup at www.warningpages.com to get PAID for this traffic that has been wasted by so many for years! icq#777970

        Does it really matter? I'm thinking that unless you live with an FBI agent, your chances of getting caught are very slim. The real question is how you feel about making copies of movies you didn't pay for.

              i dont have lots of money, but im a movie addict. so if i know a friend's got a flick that i like, i go, could i have that burned? they usually agree. in turn i loan my copies to others, sort of to return the favor. but if i do have money i usually buy the original. if you sell it, its illegal. otherwise, if its just for private viewing i dont think youd get caught.

                      You can still do it, but it's not legal. All you need is the program DVDXCopy and a free little program called DVD43 that removes the encrypted data from the DVD so DVDXCopy can copy it. Not that I have the programs or copy DVDs

                        Sweat blood into producing the movies? hah, yeah right... any movie that makes it into a video store or onto your PC has already made millions for the company producing it.

                        If they were true "artists", whether it be music or movies, they wouldn't care about the financial gains, they would be happy that more people were affected by their creations.

                            There is better ways you could rip the dvd into a .iso and use pinnacle instant copy to compress it (so it fits onto one DVD-R), then burn.. DVDXCopy often requires 2 discs.

                            (all hypothetically of course)

                                          sucks if your films get scratched, if you own it, you should be allowed to make a backup.

                                          that sucks as dvds do get fucked real easy

                                            DVD companies should have a program where you can return a damaged disc with a nominal fee for replacement.
                                            .

                                              I use two different programs.. both work fine.. 1 click DVD copy (which you'll need the afformetioned DVD43 running while copying.. 1 click compresses all info to one disc, also gives you the option of stripping the extra audio tracks to save space.. (I don't really need french or spanish) also DVD Cloner II is great.. has all the same features + it will copy your DVD games, not that I rent those and copy them either or anything...
                                              Why is my fucking clock always stuck on 4:20?!

                                                Started DVD shrink and yes you can keep the menus.
                                                Quality is much better than DVDxcopy also

                                                  If you live in Canada is legal to copy but not distribute.. at least as far as I last heard.

                                                        It'll tell you if movies are single or dual layer. All the burners and media out now will only burn the single layer ones. Team that up with Netflix and you're set.

Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60. Let me repeat... A 120 x 60 button and no more that 3 lines of DEFAULT SIZE AND COLOR text.

Once you've watched it you can erase it or overwrite it with something else. No chance of being caught red-handed with 200 DVD-Rs

                                                                                I have a DVD recorder (like a VCR) so I just record movies off pay TV, and then burn them to DVD-R via the PC. I'm pretty sure *that* is legal since it's for personal use only.
