| DVD perhaps yes, until the disc degrades. BluRay no, because your player's keys can be revoked when you pop in a new disc. |

| Ok, how long do you have to rip & copy the content as you desire? It is still reasonably a forever version. Before you bring up laws around keys, first consider that jaywalking in front of your house is illegal too. Again, it is reasonably a forever version. |

| ▲ | iainmerrick an hour ago | parent | next [-] | | jaywalking in front of your house is illegal In most parts of the world it’s not illegal. That’s a seriously draconian law. | |
| ▲ | Schiendelman 30 minutes ago | parent | prev | next [-] | | Crossing the street in a residential neighborhood is legal in almost all of the world and increasingly legal in the US as well. Many major cities started with non-enforcement and some are rolling back jaywalking laws entirely. | |

| ▲ | nekusar 32 minutes ago | parent [-] | | Snarky shit aside... Why should I pay to be treated as a criminal, when pirating is better in every way and costs nothing? There is no option of "Pay for digital copy of show that permits format/time shifting and backup for as long as I want, with no DRM". Like GOG. Doesn't exist in the pay realm. | | |
| ▲ | dfxm12 11 minutes ago | parent [-] | | It seems like you're just adding more and more qualifiers until you can finally justify piracy to yourself. You can reasonably do what you want if you buy the disc. There's a good chance that's how the people you're downloading from did it. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ |
