Re:What is 'open' about DVD? (Score 1)

DVD is in digital format, which allows higher resolution and much clearer picture quality. There is no real security format which would prevent you from making copies. The down side to recording to VHS is the picture quality will degenerate. Quality won't be as poor as recording from VHS to VHS. In time the copy protection will be figured out. Until then, just don't get caught.
