Despite many people believing it is legal ,it is NOT legal to make backups of copyright material ,whatever the reason.If Trading Standards raided you and found copied discs,the personal use backup excuse won't wash.
Last year the law was strengthened regarding devices to circumvent copy protection.Leads from the likes of KT Vision and Sonel are illegal,which is why Lektropacks and Keene Electronics don't sell them anymore,and why forums like Digital Spy and THIS forum have banned posting links to the sites that sell them.
Did you know that following another court case,modchips for a PS2 are also illegal,mainly down to a case where the modchips on trial could remove CP aswell.There are still some sites bending the law,regarding modchips and these leads,but sooner or later the Jobsworthts that are Trading Standards will move in once they have wasted more tax payers money on court cases stopping sex shops selling R18 discs over the net.
Back to the initial problem,DVDXCOPY was banned from sale in the US last year,they went out of business,and if you sell it on ebay it will be removed
