ok N_Jay- let me spell this out for you.

you buy a commercial dvd with copyrighted material on the disc.

that copyrighted material is ENCRYPTED on the disc.

you, as the owner of the disc can do almost anything you like to the disc. play it in your computer, play it in a dvd player, use it as a frisbee, put it in a microwave and watch it spark up.

but the minute you even attempt to rip or DECRYPT the copyrighted material, regardless of your "fair use" interpretation of the law, you are in violation of DMCA. You are not allowed, by law, to DECRYPT, or BREAK the copyprotection on any Dora the Explorer discs.

let the issue drop - technically you're wrong. in the eyes of the MPAA/RIAA, you'd be legally guilty.

dickus.
