It’s a conundrum: To do something legal, you must first do something that’s illegal. The law in question being the Digital Millennium Copyright Act ( DMCA). You will want to be aware, however, that while it is perfectly legal to make copies of your digital media, the letter of the law states that it is illegal to defeat encryption to do so. Not as easily as the rest, but it’s doable. The good news for consumers is that despite the enormous resources the industry has invested in DRM (digital rights management), every copyright scheme to date has been cracked or bypassed, including the latest: AACS 2.0. It’s great to see the industry responding to consumer demand, and there is no additional fee to use Movies Anywhere, but there is also no guarantee the service will be available in perpetuity. UltraViolet was launched to render ripping unnecessary, but the service is being discontinued.
