Highly Ranked

Sorry, let me say this: If I buy something, I will do with it whatever I want. The DMCA says it's copyright infringement to override DRM. How is that? Overriding DRM is not copying someone elses copyrighted material.

I'm sorry, but when I buy something, I will do with it as I please. It's not up to the companies to decide what I can and can't do with it. I am not purchasing a right, priveledge, or signing a contract. I am purchasing a physical disk, and am not creating copies to hand out to others. I am protecting my investment by making a backup copy. It's too bad blu-ray consumers like being told what to do with their purchases.

Besides, who the hell would want to download a 50GB torrent anyways? I think the best copyright protection with HD disks is making the movie files so damn big.
