[QUOTE="chas_m, post: 1421937"] I would ask the moderators not to be too hard on Germany_Chris, as he may be from Germany where they don't have the draconian US law and thus may be unfamiliar with it. I'm well aware of the US law (having lived there previously) and how different things are outside the US (and that this site conforms strictly to US law on this matter) but not everyone is that worldly and/or has a difficult time believing the US actually has a law that makes it illegal for you to copy or back up a disc you paid for, even for benign/sensible reasons. It's an overreaching law IMO but I don't see where the site (which is US based) really has any choice other than to conform to the law and limit its exposure to any liability and thus it forbids discussion of how to circumvent DRM.
