Depends where you live. It's not legal in the UK, for example. I'm not entirely sure that backing up DVDs is legal in the US - ISTR that one of the big software companies (might have been the makers of "RealPlayer") was forced to withdraw from sale a DVD "backup" program when the courts ruled that it was a tool for infringing copyight, and that DVD owners did not have an inherent "right" to create backup copies of their DVDs.
