You could go see the movie again at the theater. Or, you could buy another copy of the movie on DVD.
What happens, though, when those DVDs begin to wear out? Simple, I just run to the nearest movie store and buy another copy. Sure, that�s one answer, but what if the movie is no longer available to be bought? No more moving watching!
That�s a good question. It�s true that DVDs are copyright protected. This came about due to widespread pirating the first time DVDs were released. Companies were forced to add encryption software to protect their investment.
Why spend the money and go to all that trouble? Consider this: what if your movie has been watched so often, the disc becoming worn? Or, what if the disc has scratches? Yes, you could simply buy another copy of the movie.
It does take some work, though, and some special software. Decrypting software is widely available for those wishing to burn backup copies as a preventive measure. DVDs do wear out. Sometimes they get accidentally scratched or damaged somehow. By burning a backup copy, you can get rid of the wear and tear, and enjoy a fresh new version of the movie.
Once you�re ready, copy the DVD and run the decrypting software. When the DVD has been decrypted, the files show up on your computer as individual files. Now is the time to delete the protection software and any files that do not relate directly to the film.
What you have left should be the film, and only the film. Shrink these files back to their 1/4 normal size, and transfer to a blank DVD disk. That�s it, you have just burned a backup copy of a copy protected DVD.
Now you can take your DVD library, especially those that are beginning to show wear, and burn a backup copy. Plus, when the backup copies begin to show wear, you can simply burn a backup copy of the backup copy.
Again you ask, why spend the money and go to all that trouble? First, consider the cost of actually going to the movies these days. A family of four can cost close to $40.00 for prime time showings. (Matinees, senior citizens, students and children will cost less). The average cost of a DVD is about $20.00, half the cost. Plus, once purchased, the DVD can be watched over and over and over again. Seeing the movie again at the Multiplex could cost another $40.00.
So, if your DVD library is suffering from overuse, consider burning a backup copy. Save your movies now, before it�s too late!
