,----[ Quote ]
| Making backup copies etc. is so eminently reasonable that it needs spelling
| out by the courts. Paradoxically, not spelling it out is worse for the film
| industry, since the boundary of what is and is not (morally) acceptable are
| ill-defined, letting people make it up as they go along.
