    If it againt the law to copy a disc you own why is this site running? In one breath you say its illegal to burn copy procted disc but you turn around & tell people how to beat the system. Please explain this to all of us.

    I'm new to this site, but in several of the post here it states that it is illegal for you to go out and rent a movie and make a copy of it, but if you OWN a copy of it....its not illegal for you to make a back up copy of it for yourself.

    Arkansas, I think you are the only one with the problem. Everybody here gets along and want sto help out those in need. Why come on here and get everybody irrated with your statements? What are you trying to accomplish? If you do not like what we try to do here, do not come on the site. Pretty simple I would think. If you think it is wrong to copy a legally bought DVD that you personnelly own, then do not copy it. The rest of us feel, we own it and copy it for ourselves if we want to. You obviously do not feel that way. That is your opinion. Just not those who want to be here to help and get questions answered.

    We have a don't ask don't tell policy here are Afterdawn..

    Don't ask about doing anything illegally and don't tell me you're doing something illegal.. In other words if you have a problem "Backing Up" a DVD or Game and you just ask how to make a "Back up" I'll help and tell you but if you say I just rented Hostel from Blockbuster and I want to make a Copy of it . I'm not going to tell ya nothing....

    or

    if you say hey I just d/l'd Superman Returns and I want to convert it to DVD I'm not going to help you with it.. But if you say I have this AVI and I need to convert it to DVD I'll tell ya.. and I won't ask what it is..

    Don't ask.. Don't Tell

    @ arkansas:

    the only thing you seem to be starting is a flame war.There is a right way and a wrong way to post on AD.This wont be tolerated by the mods so maybe you need to take a chill pill.

    Calm down , and play nice

    Wow...this was the last place I would expect to find a soap opera. I guess the saying is true....there is one in every crowd. Someone that loves to start drama.

    @Arkansas

    You've managed to pi$$ everyone off in two threads. Are ye going to go for three? I hear rumblings in the distance. Go somewhere else and spread your manure.

    This site is PERFECTLY LEGAL. It really depends on how you look at it. I look at it like this. Either:
    1. I buy a movie. My kids want to see it. I don't want to buy another copy for them. I back it up for them. This causes a couple of things to occur: I can now use that disc as my disc to use over and over again. Thus no more scratches, etc. Yeah, I circumvented copy protection. But copy protection's purpose is only one thing: to help prevent illegal usage. Since I did nothing illegal I view my actions as entirely illegal. I view circumvention as illegal when it goes outside the owner's express permission or forbation! I didn't circumvent copy-protection.
    OR
    2. Now, another story. This is not a real story, just an example!!! I own a business, which I'll call GOGOCHAR'S MOVIE BURNING BUSINESS. Someone comes into the shop and orders Hostel. I quickly go to my computer and *circumvent the copy-protection*. I tell them to come back in an hour. When they come back, it's a perfect back-up. I'll sell it to them for $5. They leave and never come back. Now, in this case I DID circumvent copy protection. This case it is illegal. This case is WRONG and SHOULDN'T HAPPEN!
    In the first case, I didn't circumvent copy-protection, but in the second case, I did! Now, do you understand the difference?

    You broke copy protection and the law in both instances. First case doesn't hurt the MP industry, so they bitch and moan, but the second case does and they take action if they can. They're in a losing position either way.

    @arkanass

    I just wanted you to read something before you get booted so you will know how I and many others here feel about you and your shenanigans...

    I cannot believe how incredibly stupid you are. I mean rock-hard stupid. Dehydrated-rock-hard stupid. Stupid so stupid that it goes way beyond the stupid we know into a whole different dimension of stupid. You are trans-stupid stupid. Meta-stupid. Stupid collapsed on itself so far that even the neutrons have collapsed. Stupid gotten so dense that no intellect can escape. Singularity stupid. Blazing hot mid-day sun on Mercury stupid. You emit more stupid in one second than our entire galaxy emits in a year. Quasar stupid. Your writing has to be a troll. Nothing in our universe can really be this stupid. Perhaps this is some primordial fragment from the original big bang of stupid. Some pure essence of a stupid so uncontaminated by anything else as to be beyond the laws of physics that we know. I'm sorry. I can't go on. This is an epiphany of stupid for me. After this, you may not hear from me again for a while. I don't have enough strength left to deride your ignorant questions and half baked comments about unimportant trivia, or any of the rest of this drivel. Duh.

    You are a fiend and a coward, and you have bad breath. You are degenerate, noxious and depraved. I feel debased just for knowing you exist. I despise everything about you. You are a bloody nardless newbie twit protohominid chromosomally aberrant caricature of a coprophagic cloacal parasitic pond scum and I wish you would go away.

    You are a waste of flesh. You have no rhythm. You are ridiculous and obnoxious. You are the moral equivalent of a leech. You are a living emptiness, a meaningless void. You are sour and senile. You are a disease, you puerile one-handed slack-jawed drooling meatslapper.

    You are a bleating fool, a curdled staggering mutant dwarf smeared richly with the effluvia and offal accompanying your alleged birth into this world. An insensate, blinking calf, meaningful to nobody, abandoned by the puke-drooling, giggling beasts who sired you and then killed themselves in recognition of what they had done.

    P.S.: You are hypocritical, greedy, violent, malevolent, vengeful, cowardly, deadly, mendacious, meretricious, loathsome, despicable, belligerent, opportunistic, barratrous, contemptible, criminal, fascistic, bigoted, racist, sexist, avaricious, tasteless, idiotic, brain-damaged, imbecilic, insane, arrogant, deceitful, demented, lame, self-righteous, byzantine, conspiratorial, satanic, fraudulent, libelous, bilious, splenetic, spastic, ignorant, clueless, illegitimate, harmful, destructive, dumb, evasive, double-talking, devious, revisionist, narrow, manipulative, paternalistic, fundamentalist, dogmatic, idolatrous, unethical, cultic, diseased, suppressive, controlling, restrictive, malignant, deceptive, dim, crazy, weird, dystopic, stifling, uncaring, plantigrade, grim, unsympathetic, jargon-spouting, censorious, secretive, aggressive, mind-numbing, arassive, poisonous, flagrant, self-destructive, abusive, socially-retarded, puerile, clueless, and generally Not Good.

    All I can say is wow...will wait for this to be moved to the safety valve for the wolves to chew on. Better yet I think this needs to closed as its turning into a flamewar and somebody isn't wearing any flame-resistant overalls.
