OT-LEGAL: DVD ripping/copying

[Travis Roy]

Thought this story might be of interest given the recent talks on the  
list

"Manufacturers, dealers, and champions of digital rights everywhere  
can rejoice: Video server maker Kaleidescape has beaten the DVD Copy  
Control Association (DVD CCA)."

But keep this part in mind:

"Because of this ruling, the Judge did not have to get into copyright  
issues, so the Kaleidescape ruling has no copyright implications. It  
is not a statement on the legality of ripping DVDs."
