The company simply needs to change their business model.

You buy the DVD, send it to us, we make a scrubbed copy, and send back both to you. Do as you wish with the original.

Anyone here object to that?

That does make sense, but here is the problem. Let's say that this company does this, and someone buys the original and sends it in. The purchaser then gets his scrubbed movie back. What is going to stop him from burning a copy of that disc and giving it to his friends? Then his friends giving it to his friends? That is why musicians do not like their music being downloaded. Everyone can get their hands on it and they sell less CD's.

Although I like your approach, Copyright laws could still be infringed
