The rules with televised broadcasts are that you can archive them for later viewing, but you do not have distribution rights.

Just reading the copyright act makes that clear enough. Russell you also mention that you downloaded them from the net not recorded them yourself.

To briefly get back to the original question, I use DVD2one for burning, its quick, really simple to use and best of all it squishes great big files onto teeny weeny dvds lol
I got the whole of Doctor Who 2005 (including the Christmas Invasion, making 14 episodes) onto 3 dvds, and the quality is excellent.

And before anyone jumps on me about copyright etc, these are back ups for my own personal use.

still illegal to copy the discs though, read the copyright info at the beginning  

i mean ffs, its even illegal to lend a dvd out  :shock:

I never did see the point of that one, to be illegal to lend a DVD/Album/Game etc.  I mean who doesnt whether they know its illegal or not.

How the heck could you prove that one anyway?

i know mate, tis quite sad considering they only do it to milk more out of the consumer. thats why piracy doesnt bother me tbh, they are just too greedy :x

lawers do my nut in.

mirror for the lawyer, whatfor???
