Not all unauthorised copying is wrong, in a moral sense. It may or may not be wrong in a legal sense, depending on where you live.

Some DVDs have a compulsory play of a 30 second advert (about copyright infringement!), and IMO it's NOT wrong to make a copy without that advert for personal use, although it's certainly copyright infringement.

One would have thought that by now media companies would have realised that irritating their paying customers isn't a good business plan?
