• 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.

OK, I see all the software out there is for Windows, so how do you save Netflix video to keep on your iPad for viewing later? There's some awesome software for Windows, but it seems if you have Mac you just get left in the dust unless you want to pay big bucks for Windows apps.

This is not a feature supported by Netflix and would require breaking their DRM which is against U.S. law and therefore not up for discussion here.

Nuff said. Don't want to be breaking the law. Thanks
