Having The guts

I was ripping some DVDs. At first I was real excited, until I put the .vobs in dgindex and read the redistribution message. The risk would be a fee of 2,500 dollars and up to 5 years in a federal prison. That just punched my motivation to edit in the balls. I kept the .vobs just in case I manned up. Mainly what I want to discuss is how do you guys get around that and have the will to still edit and upload your videos. I haven't edited for a while now and I want to, but as of now I really don't feel as if it's worth it.

>ITT my parents were rebelling against policemen in the streets and their son doesn't even have the balls to rip a fucking DVD.

If you care about copyright you are rocking out with the man.

The law isn't enforced unless you rip, redistribute the materials, and get caught selling/sharing them.

Making a few amateur music videos with the material isn't gonna land you in prison. It'd be a pathetic day indeed if it did.

Good news, you just broke copyright law according to the dmca or what ever the fuck is the one that says you can't circumvent encryption... So, sense you've already done one, why stop now? go for the gold and get something out of it.

Ripping alone is Fair Use.

You are allowed to make one copy. For that you HAVE to rip. I see that you are in New York, which is the United States, which is covered by SCOTUS's ruling merely the act of ripping DVDs you own is not copyright infringement. Encryption or not.
