>What about the anti-piracy measures on the Blu Ray? In the US, bypassing DRM is a crime even if the intended use is legal. There are exceptions for things like criticism and accessibility, but I don't believe they'd be relevant. Maybe it'd be as simple as selling your new copies as "for review purposes" and it'd be legal, I'm not sure. | ||||||||

The ban on bypassing DRM only applies to copyright protection measures, and if a work is in the public domain there is no copyright protection on it. It does unambiguously affect fair use of copyrighted works, but just dumping fully-PD works that happen to reside on DRM-protected media ought to be OK. | ||||||||
