But for a sale of software, I think it's the location of the company that's important, as (in general) the US can't prosecute people who aren't in the US. Of course, given the Skylarov precedent, if I was part of a company selling DVD ripping software, I would be hesitant about visiting the US.

They may not be able to prosecute people outside of the US, but they should be able shut down their website via Godaddy.
Anyway, I feel that I've hogged this post long enough and taken it slightly off topic, so as Father of the Forum I bow to your knowledge and exit stage left.
