Do others reading this board make backup copies of their DVD movies? This question is solely directed at those who would do so for their own personal use. I strongly disagree with piracy.
My question is two-fold: is DVD X Copy (platinum) important for this purpose? I recognize that after existing stock is depleted, this software will no longer be available. Is it a case of buy it now or never?
Second, does the new generation of DVD recorder drives (e.g., Sony DRU700A), with the capacity to burn dual-layer DVDs, finally make this practical, so that an entire movie (or up to 4 hours of MPEG-2) can be fitted on a single disk?
Thanks for the information.
