    That’s right, I forgot. It’s legal to make a backup of the DVD, but it is illegal to bypass the DRM.

    But there’s some legal loophole where unless they actually witness you ripping the disc, they can’t prove that you bypassed the DRM, so they can’t really do much about that. So, it’s not exactly “legal” so much as it is “not illegal”.
