I said, those that RENT them definately have copyright issues... but those that take a DVD you own, and then create an edited version of it for you and charge you for the editing have not violated copyright law.
The fact you paid them to make an edited copy for your own use is not remotely a violation of copyright.
The rental places, yea, they definately have issues with copyright violation.. but companies who say SEND US YOUR PURCHASED DVD and we'll send it back to you with an edited version for $10 or $20 have not violated copyright law.
Judge made the right call regarding rentals.... but to say that all companies that "clean" movies are illegal is idiotic.

If the companies are doing it "Free of Charge" as one time, personal-use-back-ups, there might be some logic to to that.
However, we both know that if these companies are altering the movies, for a fee, without advice or consent of the filmmakers, then what they are doing is illegal
