You know, I totally believe in everyone; but put that snippet about legality in for formality sake. I don't want any problems for edge owners or the forum. The DRM protection for movies is tricky and different in other countries too.
Here is a snippet from Wikipedia:
Under United States' Federal law, making a backup copy of a DVD-Video or an audio CD by a consumer is legal under fair use protection. However, this provision of United States law conflicts with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act prohibition of so-called "circumvention measures" of copy protections.
