I just got a DVD burner and now I want to make backup copies of my DVD
movies. I need a program to use to override the CSS protection. Any ideas?
I also want a AVI to DVD converter and a WMV to DVD converter. Any help
will be appreciated, especially the programs are free! Thanks in advance.

To backup your DVD movies, I'd recommend DVD Shrink (latest version). It's
free and works great. For the other stuff, take a look at www.doom9.org ,
they have info on all sorts of convertors. www.dvdrhelp.com also has some.
All free.

you do? why? Are you expecting something to happen to them? Wait, let me guess!
You have destructive kids that you can't control who destroy your discs!

You NEED it? No you don't.

Yea, BUY duplicate copies if you're that worried about them. God knows they're cheap enough.
Unless there's another reason????

Oh, yes, FREE by all means. That's ALL important. God forbid you'd PAY for anything!

Good guess but no.

If I want to copy them, then YES, I do NEED one. I can not copy CSS
material without it.

Free is what an out of work (till my job starts) recent college graduate
(with over $100,000 in educational debt) can afford.

In the words of my favorite radio personality, "If it's free, it's for me."

Also, what's the sense of paying for something you can get for free?

It's not about YOU! I don't wish to pay higher prices because you're too ****ing cheap to PAY for your
merchandise.

Oh why indeed! the world is one big charity organization devoted just to you.

While we all know "backing up my DVD's" is commonly a euphemism for "copying
other people's DVDs," it's still true that the ability to copy DVDs is
useful. With the cost of blanks so low, I routinely copy the discs I lend to
my son in North Carolina, so I don't have to mail him my originals. And I
often copy discs I borrow from the public library so that I can watch
series, like Hornblower or Six Feet Under, in proper order rather than in
the random order they become available there.

Am I breaking the law? Maybe so, but the copies go in the trash when we're
done with them, so the net result does no harm to the copyright holder, and
beyond that I don't really give a ****.

And I'll tell you something else: if you don't think the need to make
backups of "Finding Nemo" is legitimate if you have a 5-year old in the
house, then you're living in a childless world.

Well, to make copies you do.

for anything!

DVDShrink and DVD Decrypter are, in fact, free programs. It really would be
silly to buy something that does the same thing less well, although you
certainly are free to. There's quite a lot of good, legitimately free
software out there. It makes sense to look for it, don't you think?
