    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.

Hi everyone,

I am currently a student and would like to buy Final Cut Studio 2 as a student license but I wanted to know that once I start using it for commercial use can I simply upgrade my license or will I have to pay the full price again? If it means paying full price for the student one then paying full price for the commercial one I might as well save up for the commercial one.

Thanks in advance
Simon :)

From my understanding you can not upgrade an academic license.
