• The Mac-Forums Community Guidelines (linked at the top of every forum) are very clear, we respect US law and court precedence when it comes to legality of activity.

    Therefore to clarify:
    • You may not discuss breaking DVD or BluRay encryption, copying, or "ripping" commercial, copy-protected DVDs.
    • This includes DVDs or BluRays you own. Even if you own the DVD or BluRay, it is still technically illegal under the DMCA to break the encryption. While some may argue otherwise, until the law is rewritten or the US Supreme Court strikes it down, we will adhere to the current intent of the law.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying unprotected movies or homemade DVDs.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying tools in the context that they are used for legal purposes as outlined in this post.

Does Final Cut Express 4 come with DVD software or does it use iDVD? I was hoping it was different than iDVD but cannot find any reference to this.
Thanks

I'm 99% sure it doesn't and after searching around the web from Google, it seems like this backs my idea up. Apple's own site says nothing about DVD software bundled with Final Cut Express 4.

I can confirm, it does not come with DVD authoring software.

If you get it, you are expected to use iDVD or some third party authoring package (like MovieGate), or an older version of DVD Studio...
