what's the point of using DeCSS to COPY DVDs? the blank media is more expensive than the pre-fab....and the space that the full-quality dvd takes up is enourmous....not too many people have enough HD space to store more than maybe one or two DVDs on their hard drive...and reducing the quality to fit it onto a CD gives you the same or worse quality than copying it from tape.....there really doesn't seem to be much to be gained from copying DVDs in the first place....and besides....machines are available for that....and what's more....shouldn't you be able to record the analog output??
