Most of them prevent copying any DVD protected by macrovision, whether
it's to another DVD or to VHS. They don't make it easy to go from DVD to
VHS, but you can take the output from the DVD and pipe it back into the
VCR input. The macrovision will still prevent a good copy, but of course
there are devices on the market that remove macrovision.
