- Caboose8685 3y agoPersonal archival isn't exempt anymore, that dropped some years ago. The only archival exemption now is for "qualifying institutions".
- cmeacham98 3y agoYou have a source on that? I can't find anything - so as far as I can tell you're just spreading misinformation.
- Caboose8685 3y agoI mean just read through the link above. You'll find no exemption for personal use when it involves bypassing DRM. Which I don't think any DVD or blu-ray anymore lacks. I'm also reasonably sure that "3. Proposed Class 6: Audiovisual Works—Space-Shifting" in the above link would cover personal archival and that was explicitly rejected. Don't get me wrong, I'm still all for it, but it's not permitted anymore like it used to be.
