Yes, this was one of the reasons why the original approach the DVD people
took against CSS (a piracy tool) was so idiotic. What stops you from
copying a DVD is that the largest blank you have to work with is a 4 gb
disc.
OTOH, companies that sell those DVD copying tools SHOULD be prosecuted.
Anyone who tries to use the line that they're creating backups is a moron
for thinking anyone else will believe that.
It's only a "backup" if you can get out what went in. And you can't.
