I wish they had just said that it was illegal to sell copies instead of the following garbage:

"Their (studios and directors) objective ... is to stop the infringement because of its irreparable injury to the creative artistic expression in the copyrighted movies," the judge wrote. "There is a public interest in providing such protection."

But I understand that there may be software that would "correct on the fly" even the original disks.

I think there's a dvd player on the market that does that.

That technology should not violate copyright, because it is not messing with the contents of the disc.

But I'm sure they'll eventually make the argument that people should be forced to view the material in its entirety, thus taking away our right to fast forward through parts that are boring or offensive!!!
