Where I live, believe it or not, format shifting and ripping a DVD that you've perfectly legally bought to your own iPod are illegal activities (although nobody is ever prosecuted for them). It's as well to remember that MR is a world-wide site, and that what may be true in one country is not necessarily true in another.

If you want to say "In the United States, you are free to do whatever you want..." that may perhaps be true .
