I don't do it because you usually get adware from the downloads. But I don't think its wrong, because you can watch something on cable and copy it with your dvd player/ VCR player anyway.
I offer four words. Older Burners, Older Software. They don't even look at Todays copy schemes. (Which are a JOKE anyway!) One protection sceme I'm aware of can be broken with a Friggin "Sharpie(c)"!
haha, so true. I think it was sony, the outermost ring of the cd had the copy protection on it, so you could just take a sharpie and put a black ring around the outside of the cd...*poof* copy protection gone! i don't know what all this talk about adware is, use bittorrent, it's a beautiful thing. <--hasn't seen popups, ads, or spyware for years.
I say once. No such critter! Kinda like the NSA. (No Such Agency) Them Area 51 biotches. I just cracked the full DVD. Sin City! Twice!
