"RipGuard DVD is a unilateral content protection system that is applied to DVD discs and requires no additional software or hardware to be incorporated into PCs, DVD players or DVD recorders. The combination of Macrovision’s analog copy protection technology (ACP) and RipGuard DVD provides comprehensive DVD protection for both major piracy threats faced by video content copyright owners — the analog and digital holes. RipGuard DVD is a technological solution that effectively protects a copyright owner’s rights. The Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) makes it illegal to attempt circumvention of such technological measures."There goes Macrovision, stepping on users rights to "protect" the copyright owners rights. :roll: I'm not going to mention fair use, but lets just say making copies of DVDs could be virtually impossible in a couple years. Better get your subscription money ready for those PMPs that Felix thinks are going to take off.
