Or check 17 USC 1201 directly.TaranT wrote:This last sentence is probably true just in practical terms. But your first sentence is not correct, at least in the U.S. where the DMCA outlaws "acts of circumvention." More here (EFF.org). (Skip down to section 2 on that page.)Vlad G Pohnert wrote:It's not illegal to rip the DVD in the PRIVACY of your own home from a bought original... The distribution of the Ripping software may be technically illegal (it depends as you are allowed to make a backup of your original for your private use).. You can make all the AMVs you want at home with anything you have. You can show it to a few friends IN YOUR HOME. The bottom line is, no one will EVER procecute you if you if it's kept in the privacy of your own home...
Even if you could make a successful appeal using 1201(a)(B), you could still be held liable for trafficking in devices to circumvent copyright protection technologies.
